The Ocean in a Drop: Navigating from Crisis to Consciousness

by Dr Rosalind Savage MBE - £20.00  The History Press Ltd (2022)
hardback    ISBN 13: 9780750999694 | ISBN 10: 0750999691

The bad news is that our civilisation is collapsing. The good news is that you are already helping create a new and better one.
 
The Ocean in a Drop follows the quest of Roz Savage, a frustrated environmentalist and ocean adventurer, to find out why her own endeavours and the environmental movement more generally have failed to achieve change of the necessary scope, scale and speed. Her journey takes her from the environment through economics and politics into patriarchy and a global culture of domination – the domination of rich over poor, strong over weak, humanity over nature. She examines the tragic psychological flaws in the way we think, and the apparent inevitability of civilisational collapse, and deduces that our best hope is to transcend the current trap of runaway materialism. But how?
 
Exploring cutting-edge theories on the nature of reality and the relationship between matter and consciousness, she peels back the veils of our shared delusions to arrive at a new narrative about what it means to be human in the twenty-first century. She paints a bold, exciting vision of a future in which people and planet thrive.
