The LA Times reviews The Ecological Thought

[zalena]

In calling upon us to care about and answer to those "strange strangers" that live on and with us - including the teeming colonies of bacteria in the crooks of our elbows, the worms that render earth livable for humans, and the foodstuffs that nourish and give shape to our bodies - Morton and Bennett seek to make visible, and palpable, the "mesh" that brings us into contact with all of our inhuman others. In this sense, we might argue that they both see the kind of criticism they engage in as an encounter with the fundamental strangeness of being itself: the more we know about who "we" are, the further we find ourselves from the "us" with whom we began.

I'd say it's a little over-focused on 'plant horror' but it's still a provocative review.
