Modern Western understand-ings of human beings, animals, and the rest of the natural world and the subsequent technologies built on those understandings have thrown us into an array of social and ecological crises with planetary implications. \u003ci\u003eEarthly Things: Immanence, New Materialisms, and Planetary Thinking\u003c\/i\u003e, argues that more immanent or planetary ways of thinking and acting have great potential for re-thinking human-technology-animal-Earth relationships and for addressing problems of global climate weirding and other forms of ecological degradation. Older and often-marginalized forms of thought from animisms, shamanisms, and other religious traditions are joined by more recent forms of thinking with immanence such as the universe story, process thought, emergence theory, the new materialisms (NM's), object-oriented ontologies (OOO's), affect theory, and queer theory. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book maps out some of the connections and differences between immanent frameworks to provide some eco-intellectual commons for thinking within the planetary community, with a particular emphasis on making connections between more recent theories and older ideas of immanence found in many of the world's religious traditions. The authors in this volume met and worked together over five years, so the resulting volume reveals sustained and multifaceted perspectives on \"thinking and acting with the planet.\"\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKaren Bray (Edited By) \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eKaren Bray \u003c\/b\u003eis Associate Professor of Religion, Philosophy, and Social Change and Director of the Honors Program at Wesleyan College.
