Book Synopsis
Let us re-learn, as hunter-gatherers knew to the core of their being, that this place and itsprocesses (even in our death) always takes care of us-that Homo's citizenship,and errand, rest not with any creed or state, but with 'that star's substancefrom which he had arisen.'"-from In the Spirit of the Earth

Trade Review
It just may be a sign that the wind is turning when a Rutgersprofessor of history writes a book (and gets it published)debunking historical time and civilization... Martin finds, inneolithic time consciousness, a key ingredient in the control ofthe natural world, and locates the 'ideological origins of humanbondage' in animal domestication. Alternative Press Review Martin has given us a new map for imagining the world around us and our place in it. Hungry Mind Review
