Peterson Publisher: University of California Press Print ISBN: 9780520226548, 0520226542 eText ISBN: 9780520926059, 0520926056 Edition: 1st Pages: 298 Copyright year: 2001 Format: PDF Available from $ 31.95 USD SKU 9780520926059 Being Human examines the complex connections among conceptions of human nature, attitudes toward non-human nature, and ethics. Anna Peterson proposes an ethical anthropology that examines how ideas of nature and humanity are bound together in ways that shape the very foundations of cultures. Peterson discusses mainstream Western understandings of what it means to be human, as well as alternatives to these perspectives, and suggests that the construction of a compelling, coherent environmental ethics will revise our ideas not only about nature but also about what it means to be human.
