Facing Gaia: Eight Lectures on the New Climatic Regime by Bruno Latour
Requirements: ePUB Reader, 1.3MB

The situation is even more unstable today, now that we have entered an ecological mutation of unprecedented scale. Some call it the Anthropocene, but it is best described as a new climatic regime. And a new regime it certainly is, since the many unexpected connections between human activity and the natural world oblige every one of us to reopen the earlier notions of nature and redistribute what had been packed inside.
