In the face of debates about the Anthropocene - a geological epoch
of our own making - and contemporary concerns about ecological
crisis and the Sixth Mass Extinction, it is more important than
ever to locate the timeframe of human activity within the deep time
of planetary history. This path-breaking book is a timely critical
review of the anthropology of time, exploring our human
relationship with the timescale of geological formation. Richard D.
G. Irvine shows how the time-horizons of social life are a matter
of crucial concern, and lays bare the ways in which human activity
becomes severed from the long-term geological and ecological
rhythms on which it depends.
