They have led us to create a world in perpetual strife,that is unjust and in many ways precarious.This remarkable book by an experienced author and thinker argues there's another way of looking at the world that is just as rooted in modern science, and yet says precisely the opposite: that life is in fact cooperative; all creatures, including human beings, are basically nice; that there's more to the 'stuff' of the world than meets the eye.This book is both a powerful call to rethink our assumptions, and a message of hope for those who believe we're doomed to self-destruction.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: Science Nature & MathAuthor: Colin TudgeRelease Year: 2013 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
