Synopses & Reviews
Whereas Volume 1 of Endgame presents the problem of civilization, Volume 2 of this pivotal work illustrates our means of resistance. Incensed and hopeful, impassioned and lucid, Endgame leap-frogs the environmental movement’s deadlock over our willingness to change our conduct, focusing instead on our ability to adapt to the impending ecological revolution.
Derrick Jensen, activist, author, small farmer, teacher, and philosopher, is the author of A Language Older Than Words and The Culture of Make Believe. A finalist for the 2003 J. Anthony Lukas Book Prize whose writing has been described as “breaking and mending the reader’s heart,” Jensen’s speaking engagements in recent years have packed university auditoriums, conferences, and bookstores nationwide.
Review
"Written with passion, anger, frustration, hope, and even humor, this massive work is highly recommended." Library Journal
Review
"Clearly he is passionate, but apparently the success of his earlier books has led to his writing only for those who already agree with him, rather than crafting a balanced discussion that allows readers to come to their own conclusions." Booklist
