Global warming is perhaps the most dramatic example of what Timothy Morton calls "hyperobjects" - entities of such vast temporal and spatial dimensions that they defeat traditional ideas about what a thing is in the first place. In this book, Morton explains what hyperobjects are and their impact on how we think, how we coexist with one another and with nonhumans, and how we experience our politics, ethics, and art.

This is not a book for the casual listener/reader. It contains a wealth of information, but I found it poorly organized and difficult to access. The author states in his forward that this organization is intentional, presumably to draw a word-salad-picture of hyperobjects, which he shows not to be describable in ordinary terms. I am academically and professionally interested in how climate and global environmental change is discussed in other disciplines, but I am not a philosopher. I expect this to be most valuable and interesting to students of philosophy, literature, and maybe critical theorists (comfortable with M. Foucault).
