توضیحاتی درمورد کتاب به خارجی
The essence of this book can be found in a line written by the
ancient Roman Stoic Philosopher Lucius Annaeus Seneca: "Fortune
is of sluggish growth, but ruin is rapid". This sentence
summarizes the features of the phenomenon that we
call "collapse," which is typically sudden and often
unexpected, like the proverbial "house of cards." But why are
such collapses so common, and what generates them? Several
books have been
published on the subject, including the
well-known "Collapse" by Jared Diamond
(2005), "The collapse of complex societies" by Joseph
Tainter (1998) and "The Tipping Point," by Malcom
Gladwell (2000). Why The Seneca Effect? This book is an
ambitious attempt to pull these various strands together by
describing collapse from a multi-disciplinary viewpoint. The
reader will discover how collapse is a collective phenomenon
that occurs in what we call today "complex
systems," with a special emphasis on system dynamics and t
he concept of "feedback." From this foundation, Bardi
applies the theory to real-world systems, from the mechanics of
fracture and the collapse of large structures to financial
collapses, famines and population collapses, the fall of entire
civilizations, and the most dreadful collapse we can imagine:
that of the planetary ecosystem generated by overexploitation
and climate change. The final objective of the book is to
describe a conclusion that the ancient stoic philosophers had
already discovered long ago, but that modern system science has
rediscovered today. If you want to avoid collapse you need to
embrace change, not fight it. Neither a book about doom and
gloom nor a cornucopianist's dream, The Seneca Effect goes to
the heart of the challenges that we are facing today, helping
us to manage our future rather than be managed by it. "The
Seneca Effect" is probably the most important contribution to
our understanding of societal collapse since Jo seph Ta inter's
1988 masterpiece, "The Collapse of Complex Societies." Since we
live in a society that is just in the process of rounding the
curve from growth to decline, this is information that should
be of keen interest to every intelligent person. Richard
Heinberg, Senior Fellow, Post Carbon Institute, Author, The End
of Growth Why do human societies collapse? With today's
environmental, social and political challenges it is a
question that is more than academic. What can we learn
from history? How can we avoid the pitfalls? In
this fascinating, well written book, Ugo Bardi provides many of
the answers. Here is a book to feast on, to devour and be
stimulated by, a book packed full of insights and ideas which
will leave the reader satisfied, curious and stimulated.
