This is a tremendously illuminating book. Thanks, Naomi Klein, for the recommendation! Tong reveals startling dimensions, the gnarled roots of the rules we live by, by blasting away the blinders of human society, with its dizzying array of logic loops and conditioning. Through peeling off the layers of orchestrated ignorance, Tong reveals the vital elements of our existence, all we don't see as we hurry through the flurry of our lock-step lives. This is one of those books I wish was required reading in schools. It's well-crafted and richly researched. It will send you spinning but leave you inspired, to feel connected to your being, your Earth community, and to use your mighty powers for good.… (altro)
"What are we not seeing?" A whole freakin' lot. A lot of sad and a lot of mind-boggling amount of information here of what we are missing and destroying. The authors deftly leap toward a thousands of scientific facts and stories that keep the story flowing.
Absolutely fantastic book, very readable, and with a bit of a Canadian focus at times, too!
At the same time, this could actually be the most terrifying book I'll read this year. I don't want to blow any of the content surprises here, but after finishing this, I am in dread fear of the world we leave behind for our children.
