THREE ECOLOGIES

Extending the definition of ecology to encompass social relations and human subj
ectivity as well as environmental concerns, "The Three Ecologies" argues that th
e ecological crises that threaten our planet are the direct result of the expans
ion of a new form of capitalism and that a new ecosophical approach must be foun
d which respects the differences between all living systems. A powerful critique
of capitalism and a manifesto for a new way of thinking, the book is also an id
eal introduction to the work of one of Europe's most radical thinkers.This editi
on includes a chronology of Guattari's life and work, introductions to both his
general philosophy and to the work itself, and extended notes to the original te
xt.
