  • This Civilisation is Finished
    Rupert Read / Samuel Alexander

The reckless combustion of fossil fuels means that Earth’s climate is changing disastrously, in ways that cannot be resolved by piecemeal reform or technological innovation. Sooner rather than later this global capitalist system will come to an end, destroyed by its own ecological c...

The book shows how, by contrast, we should give more serious consideration to real, ‘lived parad...
