| Summary: | We live in an astounding world of relations. We share these ties that bind with our fellow humans and we share these relations with nonhuman beings as well. From the bacterium swimming in your belly to the trees exhaling the breath you breathe, this community of life is our kin and, for many cultures around the world, being human is based upon this extended sense of kinship. Kinship: Belonging in a World of Relations is a lively series that explores our deep interconnections with the living world. More than seventy contributors, including Robin Wall Kimmerer, Richard Powers, David Abram, J. Drew Lanham and Sharon Blackie, invite readers into cosmologies, narratives and everyday interactions that embrace a more-than-human world as worthy of our response and responsibility. These diverse voices render a wide range of possibilities for becoming better kin. |
