Product Information
In The Waning of Humaneness , Konrad Lorenz looks at the human species now. He sees great dangers. Intraspecific competition - sections of a species competing within itself for dominance - always endangers its survival. Added to that, the human species has or believes it has, a unique capacity for controlling its own destiny through it's uniquely powerful brain. This, he claims, leads to special dangers wherever such control fails to stay within the constraints of the planet's overall evolution. He cites the development of nuclear weapons and their capacity to destroy the world; urbanization, with most people living in a constructed environment and losing their awareness of their dependence on the natural environment; bureaucratization, with its corollary of alienation and individual helplessneess as people are unable to influence the course of their lives; and materialism, the relentless and destructive urge to acquire meaningless symbols of status. What is at risk is humaneness ; the obligation to themselves and the world that the human species is under because of its unique power to influence what happens. Lorenz contends that things have reached a dangerous pitch, and that the species is putting its own survival at greater and greater risk. But he is not without hope. Lorenz's receipt is education: It's imperative that we bring children into close contact with the miracle of evolution he said in an interview, and by so doing underline man's consiousness of being responsible to a unit much greater and more valuable than himself, of which he is part .

- x***o (887)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaWhat you see is what you get. With checkout complete, item securely packaged it was shipped swiftly. It really adds to the “eBay experience”, restoring your faith in people/eBay sellers when you’ve found something you like, and having checked the description, you need more information, or simply clarification on something, you ask the question(s), the seller then responds with a promptly: filling in the gaps. A very smooth transaction. I would purchase from this seller again. Thank you.
- 3***h (446)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadagreat book, great seller does things at his best, such as sells it very cheap around £3.20 free postages, he listened and responded to all my messages then day later he dispatched item well in good condition to avoid item being torn up or damaged in any form of way. Wrapped well with cello tape inside the envelope, the best with royal mail delivery service.
- p***n (869)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaUsed book at a very cheap price was bought with another in a discount deal. They arrived quickly, wrapped in plastic. Unfortunately one. "The Bride of Science" was defaced with a scribbled ink dedication not in the description. On informing the seller, they immediately apologised and issued a full refund. While one book was disappointing, the customer communication and care was EXCELLENT!The Bride of Science : Romance, Reason and Byron's Daughter,Benjamin Woolley (#382552682241)
