The new reality of Science – humans may be a key part of an all-embracing cosmic plan
The inspiration for writing Destination of the Species: The Riddle of Human Existence (O-Books) emerged from the author’s own need for a better understanding of our place in the universe, prompting questions such as: Is the world driven by pitiless, directionless chance as the Dawkins and neo-Darwinian view would have it, or is there a verifiable evidence of purpose detectable within it? A Member of Parliament for nearly forty years, frustrated and disgusted in the corruption of modern politics, where conviction, vision, and sense of purpose have been replaced by personal ambition and manipulation, Meacher turned to physics, biology, chemistry and cosmology in an attempt to find answers.
Written with careful deliberation and without the preconceived propagandistic viewpoint of religion, science, philosophy or environmental dogma, this fascinating book began as a personal quest to figure how it all fits together. By merging the religion of his youth, the philosophy of his degree, the politics of his occupation, the science of the universe, and the threat to the environment and our survival on Earth, the author has brilliantly made sense of the central question – what does it all mean?
Not a book to easily put down, Destination of the Species points out the ultimate reality; not of the human race as the summit of evolution, but of an overarching cosmic plan of which we may well be a key part.
