Overview

Do you suspect that humanity is doomed, and are looking for confirmation that you're not losing your mind? The good news is that you're not crazy! We can deal with quite a bit if we understand the reasons for it. This book will allow you understand why there's not a chance in hell that we'll avoid the impending collapse of human civilization. If that makes you sad, don't worry. Because accepting that we're doomed will allow you to stop worrying and laugh at our self-destruction. The subtitle of the book is a reference to Stanley Kubrick's 1964 movie Dr. Strangelove. Or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb. The movie used a darkly comic approach to help people cope with the prospect of nuclear Armageddon. LAUGHING AT OUR SELF-DESTRUCTION follows the same strategy of using humor to help people deal with a situation too horrible to consider.

""As Scott Erickson demonstrates, our impending collapse is because we've based our entire civilization on a paradigm that puts us at war against life. Yet we refuse to recognize that we're forms of life. As a result, we're collectively digging ourselves into a hole while saying, 'Faster, there's light at the end of the tunnel.'"" -Derrick Jensen, author of Endgame
