Notable work
Author of The Death of Nature
Carolyn Merchant (born July 12, 1936 in Rochester, New York) is an American ecofeminist philosopher and historian of science[1] most famous for her theory (and book of the same title) on The Death of Nature, whereby she identifies the Scientific Revolution of the seventeenth century as the period when science began to atomize, objectify, and dissect nature, foretelling its eventual conception as composed of inert atomic particles. Her works are important in the development of environmental history and the history of science.[2][3] She is Distinguished Professor Emerita of Environmental History, Philosophy, and Ethics at UC Berkeley.[4]
