Philosophy of Nature
Av Svein Anders Lie, 2016.Del av serien Routledge Explorations in Environmental Studies.
Rethinking naturalness
The missing part in today's environmental debate is an in-depth understanding of the idea of Naturalness, and what, if anything, it denotes. This book elucidates what we mean by "natural" in general and works out an original concept of naturalness that can serve as a guide to understand the real limits of our manipulations in times where our powers to rearrange nature reaches new levels continually. Arguing that naturalness can be understood in light of a dispositional ontology, the book shows that it is possible for someone to maintain that there is a right and a wrong way to manipulate nature.
