 | The Science of Life by Fritjof Capra Capra posits that in order to sustain life in the future, the principles underlying our social institutions must be consistent with the organization that nature has evolved to sustain the web of life. In a lucid and convincing argument, Capra explains how the theoretical ideas of science can be applied to the practical concerns of our time. Covering every aspect of human nature and society, he discusses such vital matters as the management of human organizations, the challenges and dangers of economic globalization, and the nature and problems of biotechnology. He concludes with an authoritative, often provocative plan for designing ecologically sustainable communities and technologies as alternatives to the current economic globalization. A brilliant, incisive examination of the relationship between science and our social systems, THE SCIENCE OF LIFE will spark enormous debate in the scientific community and inspire us to think about the future of humanity in a new way.
