✦ Synopsis

The significant changes that have dominated the social and the scientific world over the last thirty years have brought about upheavals and critical reappraisals that have proved quite positive in fostering twenty-first-century thought. Philosophy after Nature, an interdisciplinary collection of state-of-the-art essays, offers innovative and thought-provoking insights concerning contemporary philosophical and cultural reflection on the nature-culture interaction. Starting from the assumption that the binary opposition between the two terms has been replaced by a continuum of the two, this volume explores both the terms of this new interaction and its implications.
