1. The Rape Of Man & Nature
A trenchant critique of the modern, mechanistic worldview and its consequences, arguing that the ascendancy of reductionist science and technology has desacralized nature, commodified the environment, and alienated human beings from a sense of meaning and place. The book traces how Cartesian-Newtonian assumptions underlie ecological degradation and social malaise, and it calls for a recovery of holistic, spiritual, and traditional perspectives that recognize the intrinsic value of the natural world and the need for an integrated, ethical relationship between humanity and the cosmos.
