Reviews
In his final recount of humanism, humanity and the Humanities, as only Michel Serres could achieve, we learn how ongoing processes of abandonment, forgetting, harmony and return, shape both the state of the Earth and our estrangement from it today. A superb analysis and an essential read for anyone who inhabits this planet and cares about its future. * Rick Dolphijn, Associate Professor of Media and Cultural Studies, Utrecht University, the Netherlands *
