Non-Violence and Ecological Imperatives

“Dedicated to all animals on our planet, this unique, must-read book offers profound insights on ‘green’ non-violence and ecological sustainability. By examining both philosophical and practical perspectives, the authors expertly frame the ‘ecological imperative’ humanity faces, at a time when global threats to Mother Nature have never been so great.” — Dr. Arne Kislenko, Professor, Department of History at Toronto Metropolitan University; Trinity One International Relations program at Trinity College, University of Toronto, Canada “This book is not just a call to action—it is a call to conscience. By adopting a Gandhian lens, Sharma and Jahanbegloo transcend the policy and technology debates dominating climate change discourse. With over two decades of experience in climate issues as a filmmaker, I found the book’s message urging a profound rethink of worldviews and lifestyle choices both timely and persuasive.” — Vijay S. Jodha, Writer, Photographer, and Filmmaker   “The book is interesting and deserves to be published, but after equalizing the scientific quality of the work to Chapters 5-6. In fact, the impression is “reading two different books: one narrative and the other scientific”. The whole book - and especially chaps. 1-4 and conclusions - would gain solidity from a philosophical argumentation conducted with scientific method.” — Debora Tonelli, PhD, Permanent researcher at the Center for Religious Studies at the Fondazione Bruno Kessler (Trento, Italy), Research Fellow at the Berkley Center for Religion Peace and World Affairs at Georgetown University (Washington D. C.)
