In the 1970s, microbiologist Lynn Margulis and atmospheric chemist James Lovelock developed the Gaia theory, which describes a living Earth: a body in the form of a planet. Fusing science, mathematics, philosophy, ecology and mythology, Gaia and Philosophy, with a new introduction by Dorion Sagan, challenges Western anthropocentrism to propose a symbiotic planet.
