This book is devoted to the Anthropocene, the period of
unprecedented human impacts on Earth's environmental systems, and
illustrates how Geographers envision the concept of the
Anthropocene. This edited volume illustrates that geographers have
a diverse perspective on what the Anthropocene is and represents.
The chapters also show that geographers do not feel it necessary to
identify only one starting point for the temporal onset of the
Anthropocene. Several starting points are suggested, and some
authors support the concept of a time-transgressive Anthropocene.
Chapters in this book are organized into six sections, but many of
them transcend easy categorization and could have fit into two or
even three different sections. Geographers embrace the concept of
the Anthropocene while defining it and studying it in a variety of
ways that clearly show the breadth and diversity of the discipline.
This book will be of great value to scholars, researchers, and
students interested in geography, environmental humanities,
environmental studies, and anthropology. The chapters in this book
were originally published as a special issue of the journal Annals
of the American Association of Geographers.
