This book explores the role of imagination in the context of environmental crises. The author includes many important insights into how we frame the problem existentially, and makes a compelling argument for the function of embodied imagination in cultivating a different sensibility. He argues for a participative vision of creative imagination that goes beyond accounts of the imagination as being merely mimetic. He describes the social imaginaries that have given rise to the environmental crises and examines the ways in which the social imaginary of "progress" and the normative regime of general equivalence is being disrupted by the agency of a planet that does not privilege any of its particular manifestations.
