Reviews
"Robin Russell-Jones tells an epic tale that traces humankind's apparent predisposition towards environmental destruction. He takes us from the depths of history to the present day, painting a picture rich in data and political insight. Read it before it's too late." --Geraint Davies MP, Council of Europe Rapporteur for fracking and air pollution, "I'm impressed by the range of [his] scholarship and the approach [he] adopt[s] to the huge environmental challenges faced by us and future generations. I also admire [his] sustained commitment." --Jonathan Dimbleby, Presenter of Any Questions on BBC Radio 4, "... a remarkable mixture of political analysis and accurate scientific information on key environmental issues such as air pollution, fracking and climate change. Henceforth no politician can say they were not warned." --Dr. Charles Tannock, Conservative Member of the European Parliament for London

Synopsis
How it is that humanity has brought itself, along with most other species, to the brink of extinction? In The Gilgamesh Gene Revisited , Russell-Jones provides a time-line analysis of man's relationship with the natural world that stretches back deep into pre-history and illuminates the origins of many of our most cherished fables, myths, and religious creeds, which provide our belief systems governing our world and political thinking today. In this second edition, Dr. Robin Russell-Jones expands on his vision of the human condition, providing new findings to many of our most abiding mysteries, including the origin of King Arthur and the Round Table, the Holy Grail, and the meaning of the Trinity. As mankind rushes head-long into the Anthropocene, there is some hope as the author explains the steps we need to take to avert disaster: limiting human numbers; getting away from ever-expanding GDP as the only definition of progress; and urgently implementing the Global Carbon Incentive Fund as the most equitable, efficient, and effective way of putting a price on carbon emissions globally.

    Book in new condition, as described. Well packaged with minor scuff on one corner. Five day delay between shipping label generation and USPS drop-off which was frustrating. Seller claimed illness which I accept at face value. Overall good value.
