Human Ecology Book

Human Ecology shapes a more radical, fundamental agenda for change by bringing together a number of integrative approaches to the human-environment problem. The book creates a framework for an anti-fragmentary discourse, for a ``new human ecology.'' From the notion that the individual person is an agent mediating between society and the environment, the crisis is really a crisis of society which manifests itself in an increasing fragmentation of lives in general and knowledge in particular. These also recognize that the problems cannot be mended by the development of a single, grand theory of human ecology. The book strives to collect the building blocks which can serve as a framework for a much-needed interdisciplinary and even trans-scientific discourse against the background of a novel, evolutionary cosmology. Human Ecology argues for environmentally sustainable lifestyles, and puts forth a vision of a new kind of consciousness and a new environment.Read More
