A year's meditation on the same nearby square of forest floor, as short essays by a biology professor relating and explicating the changing now to biological and evolutionary processes at all scales. Philosophical throughout, regularly upending the distinction between observer and subject, dissolving the objective stance for an interdependent understanding.
