E-Co-Affectivity beyond the Anthropocene: On Soil and Soil Pores Notes Works Cited IndexReviewsThis is a very welcome contribution to environmental philosophy. The strikingly original thesis is evident in the book's title: what we call 'ecology' is a co-affectivity-the mutuality of affecting and being affected on the part of species, biological kingdoms, ecosystems, etc. Here, Marjolein Oele melds biology and ontology in new and creative ways, enriching both fields. Her book performs the very theme it explores: it stages a co-affective relation between philosophy and the life sciences. - Michael Marder, author of Plant-Thinking: A Philosophy of Vegetal Life Marjolein Oele's E-Co-Affectivity is not just a book for our time; it is a book that points the way to new and better times as realized in oncoming places that are informed by an intrepid ecological vision that is at once rigorously argued and eloquently stated. - Research in Phenomenology This is a very welcome contribution to environmental philosophy.
