Philosophy tackles climate change

How can Nietzsche, Arendt and Descrates help us understand the realities of climate change? Why do people struggle to grasp this complex phenomenon? Matthew Pye's latest book draws on the rich Western philosophical tradition to shed light on the most challenging issue of our times: how to understand and survive the anthropocene. Chapter by chapter, this innovative book unfolds the extra-ordinary reality of the state we are in, guided by some of the greatest minds of the past.

No Common Sense is informed by the latest scientific conclusions about climate change and environmental collapse.
