Let these be the gateways into our new sense of belonging in a living world, and let our reason take its rightful place as the servant of this deeper, more intoxicating knowledge."This beautiful thought by Harding can be taken as a concise expression of the thesis of his book. Within the book, science is taken no less seriously; it's merely rephrased narratively so that when you're finished following a carbon atom through its 200-million-year cycle of participation in various earthly communities you can actually identify with it. And identification is the first step toward empathy and respect.In polymathic fashion, Harding repeats this feat on up the ladder of complexity, ranging through microbes and fungi all the way up to ecosystems and the entire ecosphere. And once there is even a vague sense of identification, the ecological crisis of our time is no longer just an abstract scientific fact but rather a felt empathic sense of pain and a moral call to action.With respect to the short spiritual meditations on nature that are interspersed throughout the book, I feel a sense of kinship with Harding - and he has introduced me to places that my own spiritual nature travels have missed. This, despite the fact that Harding appears to adhere to a panpsychic metaphysics (not my cup of tea, but the tangent was short and so did not diminish the rest of the work for me).This book is full of beautiful thoughts, but it's really that first beautiful thought that has so resonated with me - so much so that I feel the need to repeat it:"... our belonging to Gaia happens through our senses, our feelings, and perhaps most importantly our intuition ... Let these be the gateways into our new sense of belonging in a living world, and let our reason take its rightful place as the servant of this deeper, more intoxicating knowledge."Thank you, Stephan Harding. Thank you. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Research for a documentary *by P***D on Reviewed in the United States on February 9, 2012* I purchased Animate Earth for research into a documentary I was making on the Gaia theory and permaculture, I was so impressed by it I ended up naming my film after one of the chapters, Anima Mundi and used an interview with Stephan Harding in my documentary discussing elements from the book. Stephan is one of the most popular characters from Anima Mundi, he is a wonderfully intelligent and lovably eccentric scientist who adds a sense of wonder, awe and excitement to Earth Systems Science. The Gaia theory can be seen by some folk as hocus-pocus science but with Animate Earth, Stephan brings us closer to understanding, appreciating and recognising the Earth as a life-form on the scale of a whole planet.animamundimovie.com ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars A Major Problem Here *by U***E on Reviewed in the United States on January 19, 2017* I'm looking forward to reading this book, but on a brief perusal of it I note that Viktor Schauberger is not even mentioned. I consider him to be a prime forerunner of Gaian theory. His awareness of natural interdependent systems was profound; for example the inter-relationship between forests and weather. And his acute descriptions of water and the development of rivers as they arise from springs, and their need to run in snakelike patterns, etc.demonstrates the intelligence, needs and intents of living water. Moreover, his method was based on what could be called extreme intuition and a manner of observation reminiscent of Goethe's way of scientific observation, from which much can be learned - and Goethe is mentioned only briefly in this book. (There are a number of papers on Goethe's science at The Nature Institute) The omission of Schauberger and his inspiring work is a surprising and serious flaw.Anyone interested in the animate Earth should read, at least, Living Energies, by Callum Coats - an introduction to V. Schauberger's work. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/14410343-animate-earth-science-intuition-and-gaia-paperback-march-5-2009](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/14410343-animate-earth-science-intuition-and-gaia-paperback-march-5-2009) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-10-07*
