This book is a comprehensive anthology of the leading thinkers of Gaia theory. James Lovelock's Gaia Theory, which views the earth as a living organism, offers a vital alternative to our scientific and cultural outlook on the planet we inhabit. Gaia theory suggests the rich and revealing areas of scientific research, as well as inviting a critical look at some traditional aspects of our inherited scientific attitudes.
Includes contributions from James Lovelock, Lynn Margulis, Peter Saunders, Michael Whitfield, Brian Goodwin, Mae-Wan Ho, David Abram and Kate Rawles.
