Endgame Vol.1: The Problem of Civilization

Description

The long-awaited companion piece to Jensen's immensely popular and highly acclaimed works A Language Older than Words and The Culture of Make Believe, Endgame stands to become Jensen's most influential book. Building on a series of simple but increasingly provocative premises, Jensen leaves us hoping for what may be inevitable: a return to agrarian communal life via the disintegration of civilisation itself. |Derrick Jensen is a rare and original voice of sanity in a chaotic world.| - Howard Zinn

Derrick Jensen, activist, author, small farmer, teacher and philosopher, is also the author of A Language Older then Words and The Language of Make Believe among other titles. A finalist for the 2003 J. Anthony Lukas Book Prize, Jensen's writing has been described as "breaking and mending the reader's heart" by Publishers Weekly. Jensen's speaking engagements in recent years have packed university auditoriums, conferences and bookshops.

"Derrick Jensen is a rare and original voice of sanity in a chaotic world. He has wisdom and wit, grace and style, and is a wonderful guide to a good life beautifully lived." - Howard Zinn, author of Voices of the People's History of America"
