商品簡介
商品簡介
Explore ideas, consider the big questions and learn life lessons in your garden.
Gardening is an innately thoughtful as well as practical pastime: planning ahead, imagining how plants will grow, deciding what will make a 'good' garden, wondering at the beauty of flowers and noticing how ecosystems work.
This delightful and engaging collection of essays illustrate how many philosophical ideas arise naturally in gardeners' everyday work.
Growers by their nature are in fact already philosophers: existentialists who try to live and work by their own rules in a garden;
stoics who put up with slug damage again and again, and try to work in harmony with nature;
and practical quantum scientists who witness incredible processes going on in plant cells beneath the ground. In Philosophy for Gardeners, Kate Collyns uses aspects of gardening to introduce and explore a range of philosophical ideas and schools of thought; cultivating a greater understanding and appreciation of intriguing concepts, propagated from science, evolution and aesthetics through to politics, economics and ethics.
