The book offers a comprehensive critique of the underlying epistemological and ethical assumptions in current climate change discussions. It examines how these assumptions shape public perception and policy, challenging prevailing narratives and encouraging a reevaluation of our understanding of climate issues. The author aims to foster a deeper dialogue about the moral responsibilities and knowledge frameworks that inform our responses to climate change, ultimately advocating for a more nuanced approach to this pressing global challenge.

The Encyclopedia of Feminist Theories is an accessible, multidisciplinary insight into the complex field of feminist thought. The Encyclopedia contains over 500 authoritative entries commissioned from an international team of contributors and includes clear, concise and provocative explanations of key themes and ideas. Each entry contains cross references and a bibliographic guide to further reading; over 50 biographical entries provide readers with a sense of how the theories they encounter have developed out of the lives and situations of their authors. Areas covered include: traditional taxonomies of feminist theory (eg socialist thought); theoretical subdivisions (eg ecofeminism and feminist spirituality); discipline-specific issues (eg philosophy and anthropology); the conceptual apparatus of gender theory (eg biologism); methodologies (eg deconstruction and narrative theory); intersections (eg with racial theory, queer theory); and political issues (eg citizenship, reproductive rights).
