{"product_id":"the-fire-of-hephaestus-karl-rogers-9780990360759","title":"The Fire of Hephaestus: Rethinking Science, Rethinking Nature","description":"In this critique of science, technology, and civilization, Karl Rogers questions the preconceived notions of the philosophy of science, shows them to be inadequate, and challenges us to rethink science and the mechanistic conception of Nature it entails.Moving beyond the philosophy of science, and taking insights from history, anthropology, sociology, and psychology, as well as many important philosophical thinkers, Rogers explains the origins of science and the reductionistic metaphysics on which it depends. He explains why it has led to an impoverished view of Nature as something valued only in terms of its instrumentality as a material substratum for human existence. As an alternative, the author calls for a deeper and more meaningful ecological and spiritual conception of the natural world.Published by Tr bol Presswww.trebolpress.com\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Karl Rogers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 099036075X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780990360759\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Trebol Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 446\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 0.90d","brand":"Karl Rogers","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43927130210559,"sku":"9780990360759","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_eff50855-fb74-4d46-a76c-48df439594f0.jpg?v=1681087013","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-fire-of-hephaestus-karl-rogers-9780990360759","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
