In this book, a celebration of the work of the sociologist Peter
Dickens serves as the catalyst for exploring the relationship
between human 'internal nature' (our health and psychological
well-being) and 'external nature' (the environment on which we
depend and which we collectively transform). Across contributions
from Ted Benton, James Ormrod, Kate Soper, John Bellamy Foster and
Brett Clark, Graham Sharp, James Addicott, Kathryn Dean and Peter
Dickens himself, the book draws attention to alienation associated
with the promotion of different knowledges in late capitalist
production. But it also highlights the possibilities for generating
less alienated relations with our environment in the future. As
well as discussing the philosophical and theoretical issues
involved, the book contains contemporary case studies of
ultra-processed food, satellite farming, computerised thinking and
dark tourism.
