At bottom, preventing this sixth extinction is a spiritual\/philosophical problem, for it is the assumptions defining us and our relation to earth that are driving the devastation. Those assumptions insist on a fundamental separation of human and earth that devalues earth and enables our exploitative relation to it.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e In \u003ci\u003eWild Mind, Wild Earth\u003c\/i\u003e, David Hinton explores modes of seeing and being that could save the planet by reestablishing a deep kinship between human and earth- the insights of primal cultures and the Ch'an (Zen) Buddhism of ancient China. He also shows how these insights have become well-established in the West over the last two hundred years, through the work of poets and philosophers and scientists. This offers marvelous hope and beauty-but like so many of us, Hinton recognizes the sixth extinction is now an inexorable and perhaps unstoppable tragedy. And he reveals how those primal\/Zen insights enable us to inhabit even the unfurling catastrophe as a profound kind of liberation. \u003ci\u003eWild Mind, Wild Earth\u003c\/i\u003e is a remarkable and revitalizing journey.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49746633163025,"sku":"NGR9781645471479","price":19.19,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49905344086289,"sku":"CIN1645471470G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50120831009041,"sku":"CIN1645471470VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50173930602769,"sku":"GOR013337119","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52266255974673,"sku":"NIN9781645471479","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1645471470.jpg?v=1751278072","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-ie\/products\/wild-mind-wild-earth-book-david-hinton-9781645471479","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
