In Out of the Caves the
author argues that the continuing human addiction to certain ancient ways
of thinking is crippling our evolution as a person-species by keeping us
addicted to the violation of integrity. Persons - and only persons - make
a world meaningful. Integrity of one kind or another is the basis of all
meaning, all life, all value. Violence violates integrity and is therefore
antithetical to the realisation of meaning. If we don't kick the ancient
habit of thinking like hunter-warriors, by changing the way we think, then
we doom our species to devolving back into the meaninglessness from which
our ancestors emrged so long ago. Showing why this is so, and suggesting
some ways of evolving a better outcome, is the subject of this work.
Out of the Caves replaces Towards an Understanding of Human Violence (now out of print), Renovation One (About Violence) and Renovation Two (Beyond Violence)- extensively revised and indexed. |

All ordinary folk, living ordinary lives, are extraordinary when you get to know them. The characters in this intricate and intensely human novel are ordinary. They meet and part, they raise families and work for a living after the manner of people since time immemorial. Each, in her or his own unique way, is haunted only by the normal wonder and burden of personhood and the need to be loved. Each, in his or her own special way, seeks to find or create those precious fragments of truth with which ordinary folk redeem their extraordinary lives. From the commonplace of human experience, FRAGMENTS of TRUTH from the FICTIONS of a SELF creates a dense, erotic masterpiece which celebrates the poignant magic to be found endlessly in each unique instance of the ordinary. |
