Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book begins with an account of the author's harrowing survival at sea in an open boat, and expands this experience to explore the interconnectedness of humanity and the universe. Drawing from observations made throughout his travels, the author debunks the idea of rugged individualism, and presents the true history of human origins and development. He traces the influence of the primal social unit, the family group, through the establishment of nations and the rise of civilization, and into the present day. The author asserts that the evolution of human organizations and the conflicting interests within them has led to a continual cycle of revolutions, outlining the stages of this cycle and its recurrence in history. Their negative, as well as positive, aspects are analyzed alongside the struggles of oppressed people through the lenses of class, sex, and race. Despite the somber tone of this comprehensive historical analysis, the author ends on a note of cautious optimism, looking forward to a period of human history in which we are conscious of the laws of social development and are able to prevent the catastrophic outcomes of the past.
