SURVIVING THE PLAGUE OF HOMO SAPIENS A year has passed since Jim Easom woke up. He is no longer alone. Jenny, Arch, and he have spent a winter together and grown to love and trust one another. Now they are off again in their trusty Prius, on their trek to the promised land in northern Canada, where they have an appointment: Jim wants to meet the one voice that he spoke with for precious seconds over shortwave radio. Soon after leaving Thunder Bay, trying to make their way to north west to Winnipeg, the three were nearly swept away in a terrible flood, but following a more southerly route through the USA, they won through. Now, as spring breaks out over the prairies, their spirits rise. But they cannot escape the existential terror that lurks in the background: are they the only ones? Despite having left hundreds of markers to alert others to their presence, they have found not a single trace of another living soul. Now, suddenly, they hear a motorcycle roaring toward them down the desolate highway. AN ENVIRONMENTAL NOVEL

Technics and Civilization first presented its compelling history of the machine and critical study of its effects on civilization in 1934—before television, the personal computer, and the Internet even appeared on our periphery. Drawing upon art, science, philosophy, and the history of culture, Lewis Mumford explained the origin of the machine age and traced its social results, asserting that the development of modern technology had its roots in the Middle Ages rather than the Industrial Revolution. Mumford sagely argued that it was the moral, economic, and political choices we made, not the machines that we used, that determined our then industrially driven economy. Equal parts powerful history and polemic criticism, Technics and Civilization was the first comprehensive attempt in English to portray the development of the machine age over the last thousand years—and to predict the pull the technological still holds over us today. “The questions posed in the first paragraph of Technics and Civilization still deserve our attention, nearly three quarters of a century after they were written.”—Journal of Technology and Culture

Using archaeological, epigraphic, and literary sources; and incorporating current scholarly theories, this volume will serve as an excellent companion to any introduction to Greek mythology, showing a side of the Greek gods to which most students are rarely exposed. Detailed enough to be used as a quick reference tool or text, and providing a readable account focusing on the oldest, most widespread, and most interesting religious practices of the ancient Greek world in the Archaic and Classical periods, Ancient Greek Cults surveys ancient Greek religion through the cults of its gods and goddesses, heroes and heroines. Jennifer Larson conveniently summarizes a vast amount of material in many languages, normally inaccessible to undergrad students, and explores, in detail, the variety of cults celebrated by the Greeks, how these cults differed geographically, and how each deity was conceptualized in local cult titles and rituals. Including an introductory chapter on sources and methods, and suggestions for further reading this book will allow readers to gain a fresh perspective on Greek religion.
