Making a living? (Paperback)

Customer Review

I found this fascinating book. It is a dialogue between a biologist and a philosopher of our society and its evolution. Nothing to do with biology. If you get a book on the latest discoveries of living go your way.
Access varies widely, there are hard passages and even incomprehensible to me but the format dialog that important ideas are repeated, explained in various forms with clear examples to be understandable by all. The scientific / literary mixture is interesting because it makes the book more accessible to different cultures. A scientific explanation may be incomprehensible to a literary and even made by a philosopher becomes clearer for it while becoming incomprehensible to a scientist. Besides the idea of ​​access to raw hiding information that depends on the culture is well explained in the book. That's not the part I preferred because there is nothing new but the 3/4 passionately before it opened my eyes to the real issues that we will have to face in the years to come. Without revealing their discourses, it is clear that no account of the steps taken to solve our problems (ecology, growth or decline, technological development) has meaning without changing the paradigm that governs our world view. Finally a book that does not spend his time criticizing without offering solutions.
