内容説明
By examining the views of William Blake and other poets in the context of twentieth century philosophers Jacob Bronowski, Martin Heidegger, Karl Popper, and Hannah Arendt, amongst others, the book takes an eclectic approach drawing on examples from biology, history, literature, philosophy and economics, arguing for the reestablishment of imagination as a central attribute of science that may help to resolve some of our most pressing ecological problems as seen in the context of science and technology studies and what is loosely developing into the discipline of environmental humanities.
This book is an excellent reference book for postgraduate students and professional researchers interested in ecology and environmental humanities and offers a new perspective on the history of science and the role of imagination within this field.
