"I want to show that it is possible to move beyond object thinking and develop what I will call living thinking. Living thinking is a participatory way of knowing that transcends the dichotomies of man-nature, subject-object, or mind-matter, which are so ingrained in the Western mind and form the bedrock of object thinking. One of my main guides in developing a participatory, transformative, and living way of relating to the world has been the work of the scientist and poet J. W. von Goethe." -- Craig HoldregeWho would imagine that plants can become master teachers of a radical new way of seeing and interacting with the world? Plants are dynamic and resilient, living in intimate connection with their environment. These are the qualities our culture needs in order to develop a more sustainable, life-supporting relation to our environment.While it is easy to talk about new paradigms and to critique our current state of affairs, it is not so easy to move beyond the status quo. That's why this book is crafted as a practical guide to developing a life-infused way of interacting with the world.
