Are humans exceptional among living beings? How should we understand our relationship with the natural world? Current ecological crises have led to new conceptions of this relationship, increased focus on human responsibilities, and changing environmental practices. We address both the theoretical questions raised by these issues and assess some of the practical responses which have been advanced.
