Book
Progress : How One Idea Built Civilization and Now Threatens to Destroy It.
Progress is power. It has built cities, delved the oceans and space, created wealth, opportunity, and remarkable innovation. But the modern story of progress is also a very dangerous fiction. In 'Progress', Samuel Miller McDonald offers a radical new perspective on the myths upon which the modern world is built, illuminating its destructive lineage and suggesting an urgent alternative. McDonald argues that if humanity is to thrive, then we must dismantle, reimagine, and create anew what progress means.
