In doing so, it works to articulate an astrobiological humanities. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWorking with a series of specific examples drawn from the study of extraterrestrial life, doctrinal reflection on the imago Dei, and reflections on the Anthropocene, Pryor reframes how human beings meaningfully dwell in the world and belong to it. To take seriously the geological significance of human agency is to understand the Earth as not only a living planet but an artful one. Consequently, Pryor reframes the \u003ci\u003eimago Dei\u003c\/i\u003e, rendering it a planetary system that opens up new possibilities for the flourishing of all creation by fostering technobiogeochemical cycles not subject to runaway, positive feedback. Such an account ensures the \u003ci\u003eimago Dei\u003c\/i\u003e is not something any one of us possesses, but that it is a symbol for what we live into together as a species in intra-action with the wider habitable environment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Adam Pryor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0823287718\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780823287710\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fordham University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/05\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.94lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.65d","brand":"Adam Pryor","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44126163828991,"sku":"9780823287710","price":33.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bc44fca8-862f-4329-ab5d-2179d52be7a7.jpg?v=1687446624","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/living-with-tiny-aliens-adam-pryor-9780823287710","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
