    "We need more writers with bite. We have lived in the flatlands too long," writes John Barnie in one of his 'observations' ('Art in the Flatlands'). And bite he delivers.

Ranging across politics, history, culture, ecological disaster, the meaning of truth, poetry, what we mean by identity and more… Barnie shares a window onto the world that is both erudite and particular. Leaning towards pessimism in a darkening world, these observations are often provocative, not from any bullish desire to antagonise, but as the result of mining a rationalist line of thought with an honesty and consistency that is applied as much to the author as to his subjects. There is a clarity here that some may find uncomfortable, but the aim is always dialogue above agreement; intellectual engagement above cheap solutions and sentimentality.

Barnie asks us to think, consider and dig deeper, but most of all he asks that we "…live richly among our secondary self-created meanings, while recognising them for what they are. To face without flinching the nullity of the great void." ('Varieties of Meaning')
Tsunami Days is a vital collection of essays for those prepared to engage with its unflinching observations.

    Despite efforts to sustain civilization, humanity faces existential threats from overpopulation, globalized trade and travel, urbanization, and global climate change. In A Darwinian Survival Guide, Daniel Brooks and Salvatore Agosta offer a novel—and hopeful—perspective on how to meet these tremendous challenges by changing the discourse from sustainability to survival. Darwinian evolution, the world’s only theory of survival, is the means by which the biosphere has persisted and renewed itself following past environmental perturbations, and it has never failed, they explain. 
 
 
 
Brooks and Agosta trace the evolutionary path from the early days of humans through the Late Pleistocene and the beginning of the Anthropocene all the way to the Great Acceleration of technological humanity around 1950, demonstrating how our creative capacities have allowed humanity to survive. However, constant conflict without resolution has made the Anthropocene not only unsustainable, but unsurvivable. They reveal a middle ground, with two options: alter our behavior now at great expense and extend civilization or fail to act and rebuild in accordance with those same principles. If we take the latter, then our immediate goal ought to focus on preserving as many of humanity's positive achievements as possible to shorten the time needed to rebuild.

    Flawed Predictions and Planning...

    This book contains the following two titles: 
- The Planning Fallacy: The allure of optimism has been a driving force behind humanity’s greatest achievements. It propels innovation, inspires ambition, and fosters resilience in the face of adversity. Yet, this same optimism can lead us astray, particularly when it comes to planning and executing tasks. The belief that everything will unfold as envisioned, without significant setbacks or challenges, is an enticing illusion. This overconfidence, while comforting, often masks the reality of time and resource constraints, resulting in a phenomenon known as the planning fallacy. 
  
- The Representativeness Heuristic: The representativeness heuristic is one of the most influential concepts in cognitive psychology, profoundly shaping the way individuals make judgments and decisions. First introduced by psychologists Amos Tversky and Daniel Kahneman, this heuristic explains how people often assess probabilities and likelihoods based on how closely an event or object resembles a prototype or existing mental model. While this cognitive shortcut can be useful in navigating a complex world, it also introduces biases that distort reasoning and lead to systematic errors.
