Sean J. McGrath 
Thinking Nature [EPUB ebook] 
An Essay in Negative Ecology

Moving between ancient and modern sources, philosophy and theology, and science and popular culture, Sean Mc Grath offers a genuinely new reflection on what it means to be human in an era of climate change, mass extinction and geoengineering. Engaging with contemporary thinkers in eco-criticism, including Timothy Morton, Bruno Latour and Slavoj Zizek, Mc Grath argues for a distinctive role for the human being in the universe: the human being is nature come to full consciousness. Mc Grath’s compelling case for a new Anthropocenic humanism is founded on a reverence for nature, a humanism that is not at the expense of nature, and a naturalism that is not at the expense of the human.
