Reviews
'These are fascinating, many-sided and important explorations of how all the complicated things that humans do are changing the future of a planet. -Jan Zalasiewicz, University of Leicester, UK and Chair of the Anthropocene Working Group The Anthropocene and the Global Environmental Crisis gathers theoretical influences as actor-network theory and combined and uneven development, along with a thoroughly analysis of eco-politics and green eschatology, to form a well-articulated response not only to what the Anthropocene is, but also its limitations in viewing humans as species. -- Ana-Marie Deliu, Babes-Bolyai University, Romania
