HUMAN EVOLUTION, ECONOMIC PROGRESS AND EVOLUTIONARY FAILURE

Routledge. New. 2019. First Edition Thus. Paperback. 132 pages; As New in Publishers original shrinkwrap. "This monograph is an innovative endeavour in many ways. First, it brings to the fore the synergy between human evolution and economic and social progress. Second, it acknowledges the critical contributions from the routine adherence to contextual truth and contextual non-violence of humanity at large. Finally, it argues that the world is sliding towards evolutionary failure by not moving further forward in the adherence to the two core human values."
