MYTH: The Extinction Factor

by Rick Lawler

"In this wide-ranging exploration of pressing environmental and global concerns where no cow is sacred, Lawler challenges the scientific, religious, and philosophical underpinnings of modern society while addressing a long list of controversial issues. He even takes a crack at presenting a scientifically verifiable definition for the meaning of life. If you don't like your punches pulled, there is much to ponder in this fact-filled and speculative look at the origins and future of our species." - Napra ReVIEW, Summer 1994
