More DescriptionOnce Upon a Time in the Kalahari raises a provocative question: can humankind reverse an impending global food crisis and save the remarkable planet we call home? Author and cognitive scientist Viki McCabe (birth-death) explains the holistic perspective of the world's most ancient cultures and draws a stark comparison to modern man's attempts to alter, control, and manage the natural world. Her research illustrates how the race for power and profit in agriculture and industry has systematically destroyed the soil and native vegetation, polluted the waterways, and pushed the planet and its inhabitants towards potential extinction. Although the ramifications of our choices appear grim, McCabe reveals the way back to a healthy planet. and how we can create a global paradigm shift that will save our race and our planet from extinction.
