The Anthropocene, a period of unparalleled human impacts on Earth's environmental systems, is the focus of this comprehensive book. It delves into the diverse visions of geographers regarding this novel concept, showcasing their perspectives on what the Anthropocene encompasses. The chapters also highlight the flexibility of geographers in identifying the temporal onset of the Anthropocene, with multiple starting points proposed. Rather than imposing a strict categorization, some authors advocate for a time-transgressive approach, acknowledging the interconnectedness of human activities across geological eras.
The book is organized into six sections, although many chapters defy easy classification and could have been placed in two or even three different categories. Geographers embrace the concept of the Anthropocene while engaging in diverse approaches to define and study it, reflecting the breadth and richness of the discipline.
This book holds immense value for scholars, researchers, and students engaged in geography, environmental humanities, environmental studies, and anthropology. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the journal Annals of the American Association of Geographers, further emphasizing the significance and interdisciplinary nature of the research presented.
