{"product_id":"aftermath","title":"Aftermath","description":"\u003cp\u003e‘If the human race were in danger of extinction or self-destruction, and if it could be saved, would it be worth saving?’ is the central question in Brown’s present analytical excursion. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a question that is unique, or at the very least very rarely asked. Is the very best in human nature an adequate saving grace, a sufficient counterweight to the very worst? \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHuman intellectual and moral attributes (the ability to think critically, the capacity to act with kind-ness, love and noble self-sacrifice) and human intellectual and moral shortcomings (narrow-mindedness, selfishness, short-sightedness, inhumanity and predilection for war) are weighed in the context of a changing and endangered world. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllowing for a wide variety of opinion concerning a future that is impossible to predict with cer-tainty, the questions the author poses are inescapable for those who suffer the pangs of reflection on the future course of human civilisation – assuming that it has one. The author is concerned as much with the \u003cem\u003enature\u003c\/em\u003e of the ‘question’ posed as with any ‘answer’ proffered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e234mm x x 156mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e162 pages\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eISBN: 9781780916712\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"P.R.
