'What does it mean to live in the Anthropocene? While a growing number of edited collections and monographs have approached this question by gathering knowledge of the Anthropocene, Francisco Javier Carrillo and Günter Koch choose a different path: uncompromisingly interdisciplinary, Knowledge For The Anthropocene brings together contributors from different disciplinary and regional backgrounds, thus offering a clear and comprehensive account of the opportunities and challenges of knowledge in and for the Anthropocene.'
