What does it mean to inhabit a planet? This question resonates throughout the present, as humanity discovers itself as a geological force capable of altering Earth's deepest balances. Planetary Thinking explores this new horizon in which notions of "globalization" or "Anthropocene" prove insufficient, and the need arises to consider the planetary as a temporal, evolutionary, and astrobiological process.

From the perspectives of philosophy, the humanities, and the natural sciences, Armen Avanessian and collaborators demonstrate how Earth is not merely the stage for human life, but a dynamic system in constant co-engineering with the biosphere, technology, and the intelligence it has generated. Faced with the planet's radical otherness, the possibility of a planetary consciousness also emerges, capable of guiding our actions in a context of climate crisis, hyper-anticipation, and geological transformations.

An essential book for understanding our present and exploring new ways of inhabiting our shared future on Earth.
