TEM – The New Book by Charles B. Davidson
ALL THAT HE WAS HE CONTAINED WITHIN
Ingenuity, a principal characteristic of mankind has
manifested itself in the externalizing of our very being.
Clothes replacing hair and body heat, supermarkets
replacing cunning and stealth and technologies replacing... you name it.
In doing so we have gleaned the animal from the human, exchanging our
survival instincts for the convenience of bottled Perrier Water and
Bayer Aspirin.
What is the fate of a species when its sixth sense
atrophies into non-sense? As the 2004 Asian Tsunami headed for
shorelines, animals, including elephants, ran up into the hills while
people walked further into the receding tide, pulled out to sea by the
gathering tidal wave... to collect sea shells.
The quintessential example of survival smarts is the
cockroach whose sixth sense is probably at least the square root of
six. He has survived over 300,000,000 years without as much as a
medical insurance policy.
This book, whose feature characters are a cockroach, an architect and
an entomology professor gives insight into the inner directed and outer
directed aspects of nature and humanity, and their successes and
failures.
