In a captivating journey from the dawn of human existence to the present, world-renowned economist and thinker Oded Galor offers an intriguing solution to two of humanity’s great mysteries.
Why are humans the only species to have escaped - only very recently - the subsistence trap, allowing us to enjoy a standard of living that vastly exceeds all others? And why have we progressed so unequally around the world, resulting in the great disparities between nations that exist today? Immense in scope and packed with astounding connections, Galor’s gripping narrative explains how technology, population size, and adaptation led to a stunning “phase change” in the human story a mere two hundred years ago. But by tracing that same journey back in time and peeling away the layers of influence - colonialism, political institutions, societal structure, culture - he arrives also at an explanation of inequality’s ultimate causes: those ancestral populations that enjoyed fruitful geographical characteristics and rich diversity were set on the path to prosperity, while those that lacked it were disadvantaged in ways still echoed today.
As we face ecological crisis across the globe, The Journey of Humanity is a book of urgent truths and enduring relevance, with lessons that are both hopeful and profound: gender equality, investment in education, and balancing diversity with social cohesion are the keys not only to our species’ thriving, but to its survival.
A landmark, radically uplifting account of our species’ progress from one of the world’s pre-eminent thinkers - with breakthrough insights into the power of diversity and our capacity to tackle climate change.

As old Sammy Butler observed, “All progress is based upon a universal innate desire on the part of every organism to live beyond its income.”

adequatespeakers, your comment seems a bit random?

@JustRandy only random if you are unfamiliar of the body of Bookchin’s work.

Humans have not escaped anything & in fact are in massive unprecedented Overshoot.
Humans are a Cancer that has consumed infected & reproduced, but there is very little healthy tissue left.
Humans are are yeast in a beaker of glucose and it’s the 59th minute.
When you add it all up - runaway climate change, over population, resource depletion, polluted & acidified ocean & an ever worsening bio diversity loss the only outcome is a mass human die back or human extinction before 2100.
