Product Information
This broad-visioned and insightful book examines the march toward global consolidation of our many ethnic, racial, and nationality groups. About 100,000 years ago the dispersion of what was then a homogenous human population from its point of origin in Eastern Africa began. This was slowly followed by the emergence of ethnic and racial differences among the then separated human populations. The Agricultural Revolution, 10,000 years ago, began the long process of re-establishing contact and eventually consolidating the human species once again, but this time globally. Wallace contends that consolidation will contribute greatly to the survival of humankind by reducing the deadly threats humans pose to each other. He also argues that ethnic, racial and nationality consolidation does not imply cultural homogeneity; diversity based on interest, vocation, and other factors will serve as even more fertile replacements. The book is expertly researched.

Reviews
As an initial matter, Lessigian thought is deeply critical in nature... Perhaps it is the luxury of academia, or his nature generally, but Lessig is not afraid to say (loudly) at times: This doesn't work! We need to change. He says it often, and people are listening., Praise for REPUBLIC, LOST As an academic, Lessig has the research chops to find the anecdotes that best fit the narrative case he's making, and to lay them out in wonderful detail. But his real gift is in the art of stringing them together into a story. That means that this book is as persuasive as it is enjoyable to read., REPUBLIC, LOST is a powerful reminder that this problem goes deeper than poor legislative tactics or bad character. As progressives contemplate how best to pick up the pieces after recent setbacks, a robust agenda to change how business gets done in the capital needs to be part of the picture. This time, we'd better mean it., "Once dubbed a "philosopher king of Internet law," he writes with a unique mix of legal expertise, historic facts and cultural curiosity, citing everything from turn-of-the-century Congressional testimony to Wikipedia to contemporary best-sellers like Chris Anderson's The Long Tail. The result is a wealth of interesting examples and theories on how and why digital technology and copyright law can promote professional and amateur art.", "More than anything, Lessig understands and often wrestles with a rather understated theory: common sense." - Derek Bores,PopMatters, Once dubbed a 'philosopher king of Internet law,' he writes with a unique mix of legal expertise, historic facts and cultural curiosity, citing everything from turn-of-the-century Congressional testimony to Wikipedia to contemporary best-sellers like Chris Anderson's The Long Tail.

Stephey,Time Magazine, Praise for Lawrence Lessig "Lawrence Lessig gets things changed not for the benefit of corporations but to unleash the creative potential of ordinary people in a digital age.", Larry Lessig is one of the most brilliant and important legal scholars of our time... His work has recast the very terms of discussion and debate in multiple areas of law, ranging from intellectual property to constitutional theory (...), No one is more skilled at making arcane legal and technological questions terrifyingly relevant to everyday life than Lessig., "Larry Lessig is one of the most brilliant and important legal scholars of our time... His work has recast the very terms of discussion and debate in multiple areas of law, ranging from intellectual property to constitutional theory (...)" - Elena Kagan,HLS News, Lessig is one of those rare legal scholars with both a clear narrative voice and a fine eye for historical irony., More than anything, Lessig understands and often wrestles with a rather understated theory: common sense., "No one is more skilled at making arcane legal and technological questions terrifyingly relevant to everyday life than Lessig." - Sonia Katyal,Texas Law Review
