Dark Age Ahead

$15.00 CAD

pp. 241, “Optimistic despite its author’s central premise that North American culture may be headed into a cataclysmic decline, Jane Jacobs’s Dark Age Ahead presents a lucid examination of just how easily a thriving culture can squander its most precious resources. Crime, racism, environmental destruction, distrust of the political process, and the widening gap between rich and poor are not, Jacobs lucidly argues, the key causes of concern when a civilization starts to collapse, but merely symptoms of more pervasive threats.”
