Brought to you by Penguin. Over the past two centuries, economic growth has freed billions from poverty and made our lives far healthier and longer. As a result, the unfettered pursuit of growth defines economic life around the world. Yet this prosperity has come at an enormous price: deepening...

Growth has been both an unspoken and an explicit aim of our individual and collective striving. It governs the lives of microorganisms and galaxies; it shapes the capabilities of our extraordinarily large brains and the fortunes of our economies. Growth is manifested in annual increments of continental crust, a rising gross domestic product, a child's growth chart, the spread of cancerous cells. In this magisterial book, Vaclav Smil offers systematic investigation of growth in nature and society, from tiny organisms to the trajectories of empires and civilizations.

It is so simple, we miss it. Not because it is hidden. Because we are moving too fast in the wrong direction. You have already lived it. In glimpses. Divine Life is five truths — axioms — from which an entire life can be derived. Not to believe. To see. Why does peace always feel like it belongs to tomorrow? What if effort didn't require disturbance? A life fully lived is the divine. The search for God was avoiding it.

An autobiography in verse, it tells of his childhood in the Lake District, his student days in Cambridge, his passion for the French Revolution and his later disenchantment with it.
