Chronic illness of the planet calls for radically new thinking if there is to be any hope of renewal. \u003cem\u003eWhen We Are Human\u003c\/em\u003e offers thought at a necessary and primal level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAll previous civilizations have failed, and now there's just one global civilization, which is starkly, grandly failing. To deny or avoid this fact is to remain in the sphere of the superficial, the irrelevant. The physical environment is reaching the catastrophe stage as the seas warm, rise, acidify, and fill with plastics. Icebergs ahead and floating past beachgoers idly watching the planet die.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSo much is failing, so much is interrelated in the technosphere of ever-greater dependence and estrangement. Social existence, now strangely isolated, is beset by mass shootings, rising suicide rates, slipping longevity, loneliness, anxiety, and the maddening stream of lies and concocted politics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eZerzan trains his passionate focus on several fields of discourse: anthropology, history, philosophy, technology, psychology, and the spiritual. Points of light that become a kaleidoscope refracting new insights and contributing an overall picture of late civilization.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47000843124972,"sku":"9781627311120","price":29.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/10530273482767.jpg?v=1763309571"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/john-zerzan.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
