It challenges the traditional understanding of gender and sexuality by questioning whether the terms \"male\" and \"female\" apply equally to plants, trees, fungi, and algae. The book employs a detailed analysis of significant historical moments, spanning from Aristotle to the present day, to trace the evolution of the analogy between animals and plants. It reveals how this analogy continues to shape contemporary botany and raises the intriguing question of what a non-zoocentric, plant-centered philosophy of vegetal sex would entail. By demonstrating the intimate relationship between philosophy and botany, Vegetal Sex offers a unique perspective on vegetal being and encourages us to contemplate the vegetal within ourselves. This thought-provoking work not only expands our understanding of nature but also sheds light on the interconnectedness of all living beings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 336g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 217 x 139 x 20 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781350274938\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stella Sandford","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44094259921146,"sku":"9781350274938","price":19.15,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1667556125031_book.jpg?v=1667892854","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/vegetal-sex-philosophy-of-plants-9781350274938","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
