A title soon to be released that is worth adding to your “to read” list from Lisa Sideris, published by University of California Press. A bit of a preview of the book, and its engagement with the Anthropocene, uses of science, and so forth can be found here or in a great two part series on Surviving the Anthropocene here and here.
Debunking myths behind what is known collectively as the new cosmology—a grand, overlapping set of narratives that claim to bring science and spirituality together—Lisa H. Sideris offers a searing critique of the movement’s anthropocentric vision of the world. In Consecrating Science, Sideris argues that instead of cultivating an ethic of respect for nature, the new cosmology encourages human arrogance, uncritical reverence for science, and indifference to nonhuman life. Exploring moral sensibilities rooted in experience of the natural world, Sideris shows how a sense of wonder can foster environmental attitudes that will protect our planet from ecological collapse for years to come.

Thank you for highlighting this book. Sounds super-interesting. I’ve added it to some class notes I’m working on, as it very much reminds me of Tim Ingold’s statements about human arrogance and science.
Great reminder on Ingold’s piece; I’m going to work that into a class this autumn.
Sounds good, and this is a great update for me!
