Philosophical Ecologies

the long version

"Philosophical Ecologies deals with contemporary social fragmentation by applying an ecological model to a wide range of philosophical problems. Some issues are environmental, others intercultural, still others are about matters of aesthetics and the place and role of science, ideology, and philosophy in our fragmented world. It relies on substantial empirical information and sophisticated conceptions of policy making, social problems, and issues. In the process, Iannone redefines the practice of philosophy and its relations to human life."--BOOK JACKET.
