paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Buch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Wir leben in der besten aller bisherigen Welten. Noch. Denn wenn wir so weitermachen werden wir der Erfolgsgeschichte des Homo Sapiens und vielleicht auch unserem Planeten schon bald ein Ende setzen. Deshalb ist es jetzt Zeit für einen Neustart. Einen Neustart, der unser Weltbild auf den Kopf stellt. Weil es für das Überleben der Menschheit entscheidend ist, nicht mehr den Menschen in den Mittelpunkt des Denkens zu stellen, sondern unseren Planeten. Es gilt eine neue Ethik zu entwickeln, die den Erhalt der Erde als Lebensraum für alle bestehenden und künftigen Lebensformen in das Zentrum stellt. Ein solcher Perspektivwechsel wird nur geschehen, wenn wir ein gemeinsames Ziel haben, das über den Planetenerhalt hinaus geht. Ein Ziel, das uns inspiriert, einen Menschheitstraum, der uns beflügelt und dazu bringt, unser Bestes zu geben. Und schließlich braucht es zur Verfolgung dieses Menschheitstraumes eine Organisation, die mehr Effizienz, Kontinuität und Identifikationspotenzial bietet als Nationalstaaten oder Staatenverbünde. Das Buch 'Terraismus' gibt dazu konkrete Lösungsvorschläge. Es ist weder eine wissenschaftliche Abhandlung noch ein philosophischer Diskurs. Es ist ein Aufruf zu Handeln. Es will hinterfragt, weitergedacht und umgesetzt werden - von Menschen, die die zerstörerischen Potenziale des Homo Sapiens erkennen, aber sich entschließen, ihren Blick auf die Möglichkeiten zu richten. Menschen, die die den Fortschritt nicht aufhalten, sondern gestalten möchten. Sind Sie dabei.…
