Moving between ancient and modern sources, philosophy and theology, and science and popular culture, Sean McGrath 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 Å1/2iÅ3/4ek, McGrath argues for a distinctive role for the human being in the universe that gives us a unique responsibility for nature.
