Qianqian's talk offers a concise analysis of how Eiseley fosters readers' ecological consciousness by focusing on the bonds between humans and nonhumans; and the reason why Eiseley needs to be appreciated as a necessary voice in the urgent mission to make individuals realize their responsibility to respond ethically to the living world.
