Consequently, our species is fouling its own nest and is in imminent danger of self-obliteration.
Here, a philosopher whose works have been mainly concerned with mysticism and Oriental philosophy gets down to the "nitty-gritty" problems of economics, technology, clothing, cooking, and housing.
a fascinating entry into deepest ways of knowing."
