Cohn takes us on an easily digestible journey through history. While he unveils the past, his message to us about the present is searing.

In this remarkable and deeply felt book, Virginia Kerns uncovers the singular and forgotten life of a young Indian woman, who was captured in 1847 in what was then Mexican territory.

Arbeit ist der Kern unserer modernen Gesellschaften. Das hat die Corona-Krise eindrücklich vor Augen geführt. Doch warum überlassen wir ihr einen so großen Teil unseres Lebens? Und warum arbeiten wir immer mehr, obwohl wir so viel produzieren wie noch nie? Entspricht das unserer Natur? Warum fühlen sich dann immer mehr Menschen überlastet und ausgebrannt? James Suzman legt eine andere Geschichte der Menschheit vor, die zeigt, wie die Arbeit von uns Besitz ergreifen konnte.

Many millions of species have existed in Earth’s past. What distinguishes those which survive like humanity and those who don’t survive? And what is it about man’s ability to survive which has made us the dominant mammals on Earth? In this book, we look at the things man has done uniquely to succeed. This includes the use of fire for all of our existence as Home sapiens and much of our history as hominids.

Aí encontramos a explicação de nossa lentidão histórica e a postergação da ascensão social dos condenados à servidão.

Global pandemics, extreme weather, and massive wildfires define this era many now call the Anthropocene.
