{"product_id":"9781900322546","title":"Animate Earth: Science, Intuition and Gaia","description":"\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eAnimate Earth \u003c\/i\u003eStephan Harding explores how Gaian science can help us to develop a sense of connectedness with the \"more-than-human\" world. His work is based on careful integration of rational scientific analysis with our intuition, sensing and feeling - a vitally important task at this time of severe ecological and climate crisis. Stephan Harding replaces the cold, objectifying language of science with a way of speaking of our planet as a sentient, living being rather than as a dead, inert mechanism. The book is a contemporary attempt to rediscover anima mundi (the soul of the world) through Gaian science. \u003ci\u003eAnimate Earth\u003c\/i\u003e argues that we need to establish a right relationship with the planet as a living entity in which we are indissolubly embedded - and to which, in the final analysis, we are all accountable. The book inspires the reader to connect with a profound sense of the intrinsic value of the Earth, and to discover what it means to live as harmoniously as possible within a sentient creature of planetary proportions. This expanded second edition includes a new chapter on fungi, new contemplative exercises and an update on the global climate situation.","brand":"UIT Cambridge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47039225921776,"sku":"9781900322546","price":16.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781900322546_p0.jpg?v=1763612606","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781900322546","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
