Humanity has precipitated a planetary crisis of resource consumption--a crisis of stuff. Drawing on niche construction, evolutionary game theory, and the enactive view of cognition, Berson considers cases in the archaeology of adaptation in which technology in the conventional, that is, material, sense was virtually absent. Indeed, so accustomed are we to living with stuff that it has become difficult to imagine ways out of the environmental crisis that do not come down to substituting a new package of material artifacts (perhaps with a smaller carbon footprint) for those we have today.In The Human Scaffold, anthropologist and philosopher Josh Berson offers a new theory of adaptation to environmental change.
