“This remarkable book combines Darwin, ecology, and meditation research in original ways. There is real understanding of the sciences here, as well as a vipassana practitioner’s personal phenomenology. But there’s nothing New Age about it. It is thoroughly researched. It is extremely well written, with thoughtful insights into the societal and personal choices human beings must face under the onslaught of ecological degradation.”
