Maria Puig de la Bellacasa's *Matters of Care: Speculative Ethics in More Than Human Worlds* reclaims care as a transformative political project, challenging traditional ethical frameworks. The book critiques the ethical turn, which often depoliticizes ethics by focusing on individual responsibility and private matters. Instead, Puig de la Bellacasa advocates for a speculative, nonnormative approach to care, emphasizing its role in rethinking justice, power, and the interconnectedness of all beings. She draws on feminist and ecological theories, arguing that care is not merely a feminine or neoliberal concept but a radical political practice that extends beyond the human to include nonhuman entities. Puig de la Bellacasa engages with thinkers like Latour and Haraway, transforming "matters of concern" into "matters of care," highlighting the affective and relational dimensions of care. She emphasizes touch as a method for understanding nonhuman life, advocating for embodied, sensory engagement that fosters connection and interdependence. She also expands the scope of care to include nonhumans, drawing on permaculture and soil sciences to rethink care in posthuman contexts. Care, she argues, should not be based on utilitarian or economic logics but on the recognition of interdependence and the diverse temporalities of life. The book challenges the notion of care as a passive or essentialist concept, instead framing it as a dynamic, situated practice that involves negotiation and intervention. Puig de la Bellacasa's speculative approach invites readers to imagine alternative futures, emphasizing the importance of care in addressing inequality, environmental degradation, and the complexities of power relations. She calls for a more democratic and inclusive understanding of care, one that acknowledges the marginalized and the overlooked. Through empirical examples, Puig de la Bellacasa illustrates how care can be practiced in everyday situations, from environmental activism to disaster recovery. She highlights the tensions between critique and construction, normativity and speculation, and the need for a care-based ethics that is both transformative and grounded in the material realities of the world. Ultimately, *Matters of Care* offers a compelling rearticulation of care as a radical, ethical, and political practice that challenges dominant narratives and opens new possibilities for a more just and sustainable future.Maria Puig de la Bellacasa's *Matters of Care: Speculative Ethics in More Than Human Worlds* reclaims care as a transformative political project, challenging traditional ethical frameworks.
