The Philosophy of Environmental Emotions: Grief, Hope, and Beyond (Routledge Studies in Contemporary Philosophy)

Product description Review "The environment is the main source of our emotional well-being; yet, we do not take sufficient time to know what kind of emotional impact environmental damages have on us and our well-being. This book offers a unique opportunity to understand how we feel in front of our environmental changes and how we do better for us and our future generations."Susi Ferrarello, California State University, East Bay, USA"In times of environmental despair, a volume exploring the ethical significance of grief and hope in view of the ecological crisis is direly needed. This book offers vital scholarship at a crucial moment of planetary emergency."Jan Slaby, Freie Universität Berlin, Germany About the Author Ondrej Beran is Associate Professor of Philosophy and one of the Heads of Research at the Centre for Ethics as Study in Human Value (Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies), University of Pardubice.
