Rezensionen

"The Philosophers Plant is an original contribution to a concept which for too long has been marginalized. As the only contemporary philosopher working on plants from a deconstructive and weak-thought perspective, Marder provides not only another contribution to the philosophical concept of plants in general, but also adds onto his own work." - Santiago Zabala, ICREA/University of Barcelona
