Recenzii

Japanese Environmental Philosophy provides timely perspectives on the ecological exigencies facing our world while also offering essential scholarship in the burgeoning field of Japanese philosophy... [for] it offers fresh perspectives on key debates. The quality of the work in this anthology is excellent. ... Working through the volume the reader will engage with foundational aspects of Japanese cultural, religious, and philosophical traditions, with an eye toward contemporary environmental concerns. Given the mounting ecological crises we are experiencing throughout the world, environmental philosophy should not be confined to a specialized subfield. ... Japanese Environmental Philosophy is a model of how an anthology can open up a space for productive cross-cultural environmental theory and action.
It is, to my knowledge, one of the most (if not the most) comprehensive collections dealing with environmental philosophy in Japan ... it is abundant in ideas, hints, and clues that can help us develop a new frame of mind to help us deal with contemporary environmental problems. Secondly, it is structured upon the premise that "philosophy" should not be understood in a narrow sense (e.g., the Graeco-European tradition), but broadly as the practice of thinking about the world ... it is clear from their inclusion of thinkers as diverse as Dogen and Kukai, Watsuji and Imanishi that their stance on philosophy is very open and inclusive.
