Destination of the Species: The Riddle of Human Existence

by Michael Meacher

What is one to believe about the ultimates of human existence? What Michael Meacher seeks to do in this book is rather to assess the evidence - the whole range of it - without a predetermined worldview as a premise, and to decide, as objectively as possible, what the evidence on balance points to.

[Timothy Pilgrim · Rating 5 out of 5]

Absolutely amazing, if you're into this sort of thing. Everything from the big bang through to global warming with all the evolution in between. As soon as I've finished my current project I'll be re-reading this one to see what I missed first time!
