THE FABRIC OF THE WORLD By Ash, Maurice
Description of the product
Towards a philosophy of environment
Delving deeply into our patterns of thought, Maurice Ash shows how our language is failing us. Our dualism has led us to conceive environment as a thing, an entity outside ourselves, upon which we can act; and yet it is just this dualistic perspective that has brought about the despoliation of the earth. The author argues that we must question the institutions whose existence is based on the language of this dualistic perspective nation states, conventional politics, and monetary values and re establish the principle of local life and community values.
