Product Information
Collected essays by a leading philosopher situating the question of the animal in the broader context of a relational ontology There is a revolution under way in our thinking about animals and, indeed, life in general, particularly in the West. The very words man , animal , and life have turned into flimsy conceptual husks--impediments to thinking about the issues in which they are embroiled. David Wood was a founding member of the early 1970s Oxford Group of philosophers promoting animal rights; he also directed Ecology Action (UK). Thinking Plant Animal Human is the first collection of this major philosopher's influential essays on "animals," bringing together his many discussions of nonhuman life, including the classic "Thinking with Cats." Exploring our connections with cats, goats, and sand crabs, Thinking Plant Animal Human introduces the idea of "kinnibalism" (the eating of mammals is eating our own kin), reflects on the idea of homo sapiens, and explores the place of animals both in art and in children's stories. Finally, and with a special focus on trees, the book delves into remarkable contemporary efforts to rescue plants from philosophical neglect and to rethink and reevaluate their status. Repeatedly bubbling to the surface is the remarkable strangeness of other forms of life, a strangeness that extends to the human. Wood shows that the best way of resisting simplistic classification is to attend to our manifold relationships with other living beings. It is not anthropocentric to focus on such relationships; they cast light in complex ways on the living communities of which we are part, and exploring them recoils profoundly on our understanding of ourselves.

Reviews
"Be prepared to be disoriented. David Wood's Thinking Plant Animal Human does not offer answers. It offers resources for transformation, for imagining otherwise, as we seek how to live in dangerous times. In a time of environmental crises and growing awareness of the deep interconnections of all living things, Wood's clarion call for what he labels respeciesification will challenge us all not simply to think but to live plant animal human anew. Engage the uncanny--read this book."--Nancy Tuana, coauthor of Beyond Philosophy: Nietzsche, Foucault, Anzaldúa "As usual, David Wood has written a book that we fail to read, and heed, at our peril. Most generations see the end of the world just over the horizon, but for us this might turn out to be ecologically true. Wood's voice, speaking of cats and goats and sand-crabs and trees, has always been exemplary in its scholarship and its poetry. With this recent collection of essays the bar is raised again."--H. Peter Steeves, author of Beautiful, Bright, and Blinding: Phenomenological Aesthetics and the Life of Art

I’m very disappointed in this seller. My item arrived very late due to shipping delays. Item was not shipped until 2 weeks after order was placed. I contacted seller numerous times only to be told item was still within delivery time frame.
I will not buy from this seller again and will inform friends of their slow delivery of a paperback book.
