On the Brink of Extinction (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781685094508)

In his debut Non-fiction book, the author has looked at all the major forces that mold societies all over the world, the forces that are likely to influence the future of both our planet and our species as a whole. Reality is composed of countless paradoxes, and this book is an attempt to touch base on different strands of our global quandary, without being comprehensive. This book is not about one element, rather, a selection of lessons.

Surya Sree has tried not to give simple answers, rather, the chapters in this book intend to invigorate further thinking, and herald readers to participate in some of the global conversations of our time. Some chapters focus on religion, some on technology, most on politics, and a few on ethics; some honor human ingenuity whilst others accentuate human follies; some hail charismatic leaders whilst others rue about gigantic imbeciles. Nevertheless, throughout these pages, one question keeps the spirit of the book alive: What is transpiring in the world at present, and is it too late to change track?

This book is an earnest attempt to dwell not only on the problems of the present era but also an ambitious endeavor from a rebellious young maverick to gauge and fathom the meaning of life and the future of Homo Sapiens.
