Actually, I just ran across 5 Against 1 so I just read that. Then I am moving on to "Right as Rain." I don't know much about it. My dad liked it and gave me his copy.I cannot come up with a new sig till I get this egg off my face.0

Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
The long-awaited companion piece to Derrick Jensen's immensely popular and highly acclaimed works A Language Older Than Words and The Culture of Make Believe. Accepting the increasingly widespread belief that industrialized culture inevitably erodes the natural world, Endgame sets out to explore how this relationship impels us towards a revolutionary and as-yet undiscovered shift in strategy. Building on a series of simple but increasingly provocative premises, Jensen leaves us hoping for what may be inevitable: a return to agrarian communal life via the disintegration of civilization itself.give this a look: www.borgenproject.org0 -
