Publisher's Synopsis
Civilization is officially a blessing. By adopting its features, such as farming, livestock, grains, soldiers, milk, wheat, money, specialisation of work, schooling and religion, we have climbed out of the primitive barbarism of hunter-gathering. As a result, we have become safe, secure, well-fed, educated and happy.
Unfortunately, the reality seems to be very different. Many of us are sick, stressed, debilitated, fearful, deluded and addicted. This book examines the true impact of civilization on our mental and physical health. It then investigates its origins, who set it up, and why. The results are strange, scary and thought-provoking. According to key scientific evidence, and several banned books, we are stuck in an ongoing purgatory, controlled by inhuman overseers who are exploiting us for their own ends. Fortunately, there is a way out. If we take the right path in the future, and turn the impending calamities into a method of transformation, we can create a new society, one that is truly progressive, advanced and benevolent.
