In Animate Planet Kath Weston shows how new intimacies between
humans, animals, and their surroundings are emerging as people
attempt to understand how the high-tech ecologically damaged world
they have made is remaking them, one synthetic chemical,
radioactive isotope, and megastorm at a time. Visceral sensations,
she finds, are vital to this process, which yields a new animism in
which humans and "the environment" become thoroughly entangled. In
case studies on food, water, energy, and climate from the United
States, India, and Japan, Weston approaches the new animism as both
a symptom of our times and an analytic with the potential to open
paths to new and forgotten ways of living.
