Overview

Technology subjugates the environment for economic purposes. Biotechnologies exploit life and living organisms. Science, now preoccupied with applied knowledge, has lost its ancient appreciation of beauty. In this book, the distinguished author examines a planet threatened by human attempts to dominate nature, the unforeseen consequences of 'progress' and a postmodern society increasingly hostile to basic human psychic needs. In order to rescue global resources for future generations and promote human government of human beings, he suggests a reappraisal of the aesthetic element present in nature, a mixing of science, poetry, creative mathematics and artistic imagination. He does this through narrative and anecdotes, masterfully drawing on historical, philosophical, scientific, literary, artistic and other sources.
