Features: When human society enters a new, higher stage, a new perspective on civilization emerges accordingly. This book explores the historical process of human civilization development and the relationship between humans and nature, analyzing the status of humans in nature and people's concepts of nature across various civilizations. It particularly reflects seriously on the increasingly severe global ecological crisis since the 20th century, critically examines the behavior of conquering and exploiting nature during the industrial civilization era, and affirms the rights and values of nature. The author argues that after humans evolved from nature, their relationship with nature has become alienated, leading to very adverse consequences. We must repair the relationship between humans and nature, allowing humans to return to nature's embrace and integrate with it. The book envisions a future where humans and nature coexist harmoniously and develop together, predicting that a universal new perspective on civilization—ecological civilization—will rise globally in the future.
