The End of the Megamachine: A Brief History of a Failing Civilization

The End of the Megamachine provides a uniquely comprehensive picture of the roots of the destructive forces that are threatening the future of humankind today. Spanning 5000 years of history, the book shows how the three tyrannies of militarized states, capital accumulation and ideological power have been steering both ecosystems and societies to the brink of collapse. With the growing instability of the Megamachine in the 21st century, new dangers open up as well as new possibilities for systemic change, to which everyone can contribute.

The topic could not be more important. A very valuable and surely timely contribution. Noam Chomsky, Massachusetts Institute of Technology/University of Arizona
