Whole Earth Discipline: An Ecopragmatist Manifesto by Stewart Brand

4.0

I was definitely part of the target audience for this book - a traditional liberal Green who maybe needed a bit of a kick in the seat of the pants to examine some commonly held assumptions about population, especially urban population, nuclear power, genetic engineering, and active restoration vs. rewilding. As the unexamined life is not worth living, I found reading this book a worthwhile challenge to reconsider and dig deeper into what the science tells us. Excellent to-read list at the back of the book! I'll be reading many of these suggestions next.
