With great intellectual might, ‘Ecocide’ evokes a focus on culture which it traces from Plato to the present and shows that our current malaise is not fossil fuels. They’re the symptom. The disease is our mind and our culture. The book is a clarion call, a bell that rings for a change in mindset as the key to survival of our planet, the most important book of our times, it will change the world.
At the heart of the problem and hopefully of the solution, is the attitude, the mindset that has at its heart monotheism and adoption of the teachings of Plato. Our mental illness and our ecological crisis come from our own psychology conditioned by our culture.
