A fascinating read that contributes key insights to speculative theory and practice. --Professor Jennifer Gabrys, University of Cambridge This book brings together diverse practices of speculative thinking that reimagine how we relate to our entangled social, mental, and environmental ecologies. It examines how speculative philosophies and concepts are changing geographical research methods and techniques, whilst also developing how speculative thinking transforms the way human, non-human, and more-than-human things are conceptualised in research practices across the social sciences, arts, and humanities. Offering the first dedicated compendium of geographical engagements with speculation and speculative thinking, the chapters in this edited collection advance debates about how affective, imperceptible, and infrasensible qualities of environments might be written about through alternative registers and ontologies of experience. Organised around the themes of Ethics, Technologies, and Aesthetics, the book will appeal to those engaging with architecture, Black political theory, fiction, cinema, children?s geographies, biotechnologies, philosophy, rural studies, arts practice, and nuclear waste studies as speculative research practices appropriate for addressing contemporary ecological problems.

Nina Williams is Lecturer in Cultural Geography at the University of New South Wales Canberra. Her research explores conceptual innovations in the fields of nonrepresentational theory, process philosophy, speculative thinking and post-humanism. In an effort to bring theory into close relationship with practice, a central pursuit of Nina?s research is to foreground the role of aesthetics and creative processes as unique means for interrogating social and cultural life. Thomas Keating is a researcher in Technology and Social Change at Linköping University, Sweden. Thomas? research engages with problems posed by human-technology relationships. He has published on Gilbert Simondon (Cultural Geographies), post-humanism (Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers), and speculative empiricism with Didier Debaise (Theory, Culture & Society). 606 $aHuman geography 606 $aScience$xSocial aspects 606 $aArt$xPhilosophy 606 $aAesthetics 606 $aAnalysis (Philosophy) 606 $aHuman Geography 606 $aScience and Technology Studies 606 $aPhilosophy of Art 606 $aAnalytical Aesthetics 615 0$aHuman geography. 615 0$aScience$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aArt$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aAesthetics. 615 0$aAnalysis (Philosophy) 615 14$aHuman Geography. 615 24$aScience and Technology Studies. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Art. 615 24$aAnalytical Aesthetics. 676 $a304.2 700 $aWilliams$b Nina$01341284 702 $aKeating$b Thomas 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910629288703321 996 $aSpeculative geographies$93063717 997 $aUNINA
