Professor Mathews is also the author of over a hundred articles and essays on ecological philosophy. This work traverses a wide range of topics, including: foundations for an ecological civilization; indigenous (Australian and Chinese) perspectives on environment and how these perspectives might be adapted to the context of a 21st century world in crisis; panpsychism and critique of the metaphysics of modernity; ecology and religion; and conservation ethics in the context of the Anthropocene.
