Britain's Dying (häftad, eng)

Anyone who thinks can see that Britain today is broken. But how can we mend it? 

Current physical, after-the-fact attempts are like applying plasters to cure cancer: the cause, and hence the illness, persists.

This collection stands out in seeing our social and environmental problems as substantially moral, analysing them and proposing a moral/philosophical cure as follows:

At the root of our ethical climate is personal distortion: wants and drives overriding conscience, with dilution or perverse inversion of core values.

This has produced more opportunity for self-expression within its perspective, but priority of self-interest and greed beyond.

Instead of relying on “God Almighty” material pragmatism, we need to return to the basic questions: What is our nature? How should we live in relation to others and the world around? Then we must listen to what our feelings tell us and act upon it.

The book points towards more inclusion of psychology and philosophy in education.

It will resonate with teachers, students and law-makers, people working in the above fields, and everyone who cares about the survival of our civilisation.
