Adapt or Perish: Word Paintings and Commentary for Reflections and Action (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781522775225)

The theme of this book is that human beings are better off when they add an "e" to human and become humane. To be humane is to avoid being cruel to others, and to act in ways that benefit not only ourselves, but other people too. The book is offered as a Christmas present to both religious and non-religious persons in the belief that all people can appreciate that Divinity becoming human is an idea that could spur humans toward better conduct if they sought the divine within themselves. Our scientific expertise has given us god-like powers. If we join this talent to the emotional talent of compassion and empathy we will be virtuous in the old sense of "skillful at living", and we will save both ourselves and our planet.
