Human History At The Crossroads

The pathology of wars, violence, anger, and frustration is traced from the first hominids to our time. This book traces the history of our gradual alienation from nature, from our community, and from our own and other species. The author uses a conversational tone to explain a theory of how having relinquished control of our lives to others, be it rulers, priests, or bosses, we have created a general malaise which has led to anger, frustration and violence.

The book ends optimistically with possible solutions. Review: An engagingly written, deeply compassionate quest to understand the dark side of collective human behavior, particularly the wanton cruelty and environmental destructiveness of modern man...This is [a] fascinating report--the findings and insights of a passionately concerned independent investigator that should resonate with all of us and deserve a huge audience.
