The Unforgiving Heart by Susan Udy
The Agricultural Revolution is celebrated as one of the greatest achievements in the history of the human race, proof positive of Progress and of our own exalted status, only a little lower than angels. Certainly, it was a huge change, on par with the taming of fire, the development of language and the splitting of the atom. However, a closer look shows that the adoption of farming led to declines in human health, caused sharp social inequities, started a war on the environment, and put us on a road that's headed towards extinction. In this collection of essays, the author -a former farmer- draws on both scholarship and personal experience to illuminiate the emerging, contemporary understanding of agriculture as wrong turn.| SKU | Unavailable |
