About This Item
San Francisco Sierra Club, 1991. Paperback First Ed thus; First Printing indicated. First Ed thus; First Printing indicated. Near Fine in Wraps: shows only the most minute indications of use: just a hint of wear to extremities; mildest rubbing. Binding square and secure; text clean. Very close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. 204pp. Map, photos, reading list, index. Preface by H.H. the Dalai Lama. Introduction by Peter Matthiessen. Trade Paperback. Ancient Futures is much more than a book about Ladakh. Passionately argued, it raises important questions about the whole notion of progress, and explores the root causes of the malaise of industrial society; shows us a new approach to living with thousand-year-old cultures in ways that don't flatten them and discard their value. A critically important book.
