The Empathic Civilization: This is a must read for you Dick-Heads!"At the very core of the human story is the paradoxical relationship between empathy and entropy. Throughout history new energy regimes have converged with new communications revolutions, creating ever more complex societies. More technologically advanced civilizations, in turn, have brought diverse people together, heightened empathic sensitivity, and expanded human consciousness. But these increasingly more complicated milieus require more extensive energy use and speed us toward resource depletion." - Jeremy Rifkin
