Civilized to Death

The Price of Progress

Christopher Ryan

This book explores the idea that progress has perverted the way we live and the costs of civilization. The author argues that modern day progress is analogous to an advancing disease, and that an accurate understanding of our species’ long prelude to civilization is vital to a clear sense of its ultimate value and its costs. Ultimately, the author suggests we should start looking backwards to find our way into a better future.
