Abstract
This chapter explains the background to the conceptualisations of nature. It starts with a general historical overview of world views of different ancient civilisations about nature. The introduction then lists the philosophical issues and themes that are prominently in discussion around the concept of nature and the relationship of human beings to the non-human world. These themes and issues will form the context for further discussions in the succeeding chapters.
