Reinhabiting Reality: Towards a Recovery of Culture

The book presents a compelling argument for adopting a panpsychist perspective to address the environmental crisis and cultural disconnection in modern civilization. Freya Mathews asserts that the current materialist framework diminishes the meaning of culture, leading to profound existential challenges. She emphasizes that a fundamental shift in metaphysical assumptions is necessary, one that transcends current ecological discussions, to fully understand and resolve the crises we face. This transformation has significant implications for our understanding of existence and our relationship with the world.
