“This book underscores that the Anthropocene poses challenges that far exceed disciplinary or methodological boundaries, just as they exceed the bounds of the anthropos or the material. The contributors take us far in imagining analytical frameworks, sensibilities, and political possibilities that are ‘more than human’ at a time when anthropocentrism is confronting the consequences of its hubris.” - Nidhi Subramanyam (Geographical Review)
