The Rebirth of Nature by Rupert Sheldrake
For the past 200 years, science has taught us that nature is inanimate - a storehouse of resources to be exploited for human gain. Remarkably, it is through science that our entire attitude to nature is now being revolutionized. Scientist Rupert Sheldrake traces the mythological and historical roots of our present crisis, explaining how the new science has destroyed man's faith in the total predictability of "mechanical" nature, leading to the recognition of the chaos and spontaneity of nature, and to the growing realization that our Earth is a developing organism whose laws may not have been fixed when the universe was born, but may be more like habits, constantly changing, evolving and growing. In this book, Sheldrake offers the chance to re-forge our natural and conscious relationship with the living world around us as we approach the next century.| SKU | Unavailable |
