Life on Planet Earth User's Guide by Cecil Jenkins (Hardback Book)
Cecil Jenkins provides a coherent analysis of the interlocking challenges confronting humans, the younger generation most directly, on this small planet. While firmly backed by research, it is written with humour within a teasing framework and in an easy conversational style. After sketching the cosmic accidents that created the planet, killed off the dinosaurs and made way for the modern human to evolve into ‘the only creature to know that it will die’, Cecil begins with the successive lotteries determining conception, gender, physical appearance and the interplay of Nature and Nurture. This leads directly to the family, with its often-testing dynamics and its birth order stereotypes, which are then viewed in relation to wealth, social class, political change and indeed to the many.
