Books by Samantha Frost

In Biocultural Creatures Samantha Frost brings feminist and political theory together with findings in the life sciences to create a new theory of the human that explains the mutual constitution of the body, environment, biology, and habitat, while offering new resources for responding to political and environmental crises.

This book provides a penetrating and original reconstruction of Hobbes's materialist accounts of self-consciousness, cognition, and agency and shows how such an account of subjectivity demands that we pursue peace in our ethical and political lives.
