Western science rests on the premise that the world is an inert backdrop to human presence rather than a communicative presence in its own right, one capable of dialogical congress with us. Mathews explores the transformative effects of a substitution of the latter, panpsychist premise for the former, materialist one. She suggests that to exist in a dialogical modality is to enter an expanded realm of eros in which the self and world are mutually kindled into a larger, more incandescent state of realization. She argues that any adequate philosophical response to the so-called \"environmental crisis\" cannot be encompassed within the minor discipline of environmental philosophy but must instead address the full range of existential questions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"State University of New York Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45386624499791,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":1293.0,"currency_code":"TWD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.tw\/products\/9780791458082","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Taiwan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
