Opis

How could humans come to dominate Earth in just a few of the most recent moments of the planet's existence? How did they create and sustain order among their rapidly growing numbers? How did they meet the challenge of the unknown, the mysterious? Wunderlich answers by celebrating the creations of agriculture, fire management and medicine, lauding the creations of money, logic, and writing, and then noting the downsides of each of these creations. Finally, he describes ways by which humans abide the inexplicable.
