Description

Defying Dystopia examines how technological misuse and environmental damage threaten modern civilisation's future, drawing on scientific evidence and warnings from the world's leading researchers. Ed Ayres, who has collaborated with prominent environmental scientists over five decades, investigates how technology evolved from augmenting natural human strengths into a force that now endangers our survival. The book analyses the collision course our civilisation is on and explores practical options available to forward-thinking individuals seeking to reclaim control of their destiny and secure a viable future. Rather than accepting dystopian inevitability, Ayres presents pathways for understanding our current predicament and taking meaningful action to reshape humanity's relationship with technology and the natural world.

Key Features

Defying Dystopia draws on decades of collaboration with prominent environmental scientists to analyse technological misuse and its consequences.

The book examines how technology shifted from enhancing natural human capabilities to creating existential risks for modern civilisation.

Ayres presents practical options for individuals and communities to reassert control over their future amid technological and environmental challenges.

Published by Routledge through Transaction Publishers, offering academic perspective on civilisational collapse and human resilience.

The work grounds dystopian concerns in scientific evidence and the World Scientists' Warning to Humanity framework.
