The Unconstructable Earth by Frdric Neyrat

The Unconstructable Earth by Frdric Neyrat

This book contributes to the environmental humanities field by offering an analysis of the Anthropocene fantasy: the idea that the Anthropocene is an opportunity to remake our terrestrial environment thanks to the power of technology. The author argues that the earth always escapes the human desire to remake and master it.
