Despite the author's criticisms of Thoreau, it is more like \u003ci\u003eWalden\u003c\/i\u003e than any other book I have read. . . . The book makes great strides toward bringing the best insights from medieval philosophy and from contemporary environmental ethics together. Anyone interested in both of these areas must read this book.\"--Daniel A. Dombrowski, \u003ci\u003eThe Thomist\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Those who share Koh�k's concern to understand nature as other than a mere resource or matter in motion will find his temporally oriented interpretation of nature instructive. It is here in particular that Koh�k turns moments of experience to account philosophically, turning what we habitually overlook or avoid into an opportunity and basis for self-knowledge. This is an impassioned attempt to see the vital order of nature and the moral order of our humanity as one.\"--\u003ci\u003eEthics\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"University of Chicago Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47592034664599,"sku":"9780226450179","price":3973.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780226450179.webp?v=1774975794","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-embers-and-the-stars-9780226450179","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
