LIVING ON EARTH Forests, Corals, Consciousness, and the Making of the World

Earphones Award Winner

by | Read by Peter Godfrey-Smith, Mitch Riley

Contemporary Culture • 10 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2024

Australian philosopher of science Peter Godfrey-Smith narrates this history of life on earth from its beginnings to the present, going on to explore possibilities for the directions life may take in the future. In a light Australian accent, Godfrey-Smith presents theories of evolution, mind, and connectedness and consciousness. His narration is down-to-earth and comfortable yet thought-provoking. Some intriguing topics discussed include the philosophy of living things and their consciousness, and ethics with animals relating to factory farming and animal experimentation. Godfrey-Smith ponders cause versus result and is both thoroughly explicative and instructive. The production is embellished with thoughtful music at the beginning and end. S.E.G.
