商品描述
This book sheds light on the reasons for our inaction in matters of the environmental crisis and presents solutions to address the crisis. The work draws on numerous disciplinary fields, such as psychology, neuroscience, anthropology, biology, philosophy, sociology, economics, ethology. The author argues that it is not possible to correctly understand the current environmental crisis in the light of a single discipline and emphasizes the importance of cognitive sciences to address the environmental crisis. He shows that the reasons for human inaction relate as much to the characteristics of our psyche/brain as to those of the consumption society that we invented and have lived in at least since the Neolithic. The analysis presented stresses the need to regulate individual behavior and to call into question our consumption patterns. Without questioning the characteristics of both modern society, and the way our brains work, will make it impossible to resolve the environmental crisis. This book proposes a revolutionary change of the way we live and act to preserve the planet.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本書闡明了我們在環境危機問題上不作為的原因,並提出了解決危機的方案。該作品涉及多個學科領域,如心理學、神經科學、人類學、生物學、哲學、社會學、經濟學和動物行為學。作者主張,僅依賴單一學科無法正確理解當前的環境危機,並強調認知科學在解決環境危機中的重要性。他指出,人類不作為的原因與我們的心理/大腦特徵以及我們所創造並至少自新石器時代以來所生活的消費社會的特徵息息相關。所提出的分析強調了調節個人行為的必要性,並質疑我們的消費模式。如果不質疑現代社會的特徵以及我們大腦的運作方式,就無法解決環境危機。本書提議了一種革命性的生活和行動方式,以保護地球。
