Developed by James Lovelock in his 1979 work, Gaia: A New Look at Life on Earth, the Gaia hypothesis offers an understanding of the earth as a living thing, capable of change and transgression. Lovelock named his theory Gaiaafter the Greek goddess responsible for drawing the living world forth from chaos. [Source: Encyclopedia of Anthropology; Gaia Hypothesis]
