In the current context of environmental change and uncertainty, Unruly Heritage is a timely contribution that provides a compelling reflection on the more-than-human world we inhabit. The concept of the ‘unruly’ challenges the heritage paradigm by considering elements that cannot be easily tamed or neatly categorised. The breadth of this edited collection highlights the complex material entanglements that shape legacies.
