Abstract
- Keith Moser's book, "Contemporary French Environmental Thought in the Post-COVID-19 Era," explores the field of biosemiotics in French thinkers and their emphasis on non-human communication. The book focuses on the works of Michel Serres, Edgar Morin, Jacques Derrida, Michel Onfray, and Dominique Lestel. Moser argues that the study of sign systems should not be limited to humans and advocates for biosemiotics as a way to bridge the gap between sciences and humanities. While the book lacks references to René Descartes, it offers valuable insights into biosemiotics and its relevance in understanding the challenges of the modern world, such as infectious diseases, fake news, and climate change.
