Briggle presents a comprehensive framework to aid us in comprehending the diverse viewpoints and policies surrounding climate change. Through the lens of energy as a paradoxical concept—one that embodies both the transformative power of change and the persistent sameness of our existence—he argues that a high-energy civilization is inevitably destined to encounter an increasing number of paradoxes. These paradoxes carve deep fissures into our conventional understanding of energy as the means to accomplish work and exert control over our fate. Climate change represents the culmination of these fractures, posing the critical question of whether we can maintain our grip on technoscientific control and economic growth. It may be that our world is poised for a radical transformation, urging us to embrace unconventional and heterodox perspectives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 382g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 148 x 209 x 24 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783030535865\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2021\\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Adam Briggle","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44103394099450,"sku":"9783030535865","price":24.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/eb1b605ead9d62329410f3454aee7517.jpg?v=1621193957","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/thinking-through-climate-change-a-philosophy-of-energy-in-the-anthropocene","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
