500 _aLife in the Time of Polycrisis is a unique holistic narrative of the 'big picture' of Anthropocene modernity - past, present and future - from a historical and scientific perspective. The book comprehensively unravels the fault lines in the Western socio- economic, environmental, energy, and climate policies that have landed the world in a 'polycrisis, the global climate crisis being its worst manifestation. Synthesis of 21st century empirical evidence from colonial history, environmental history, future studies, energy and environmental studies, climate science, biophysical economics and industrial ecology form the basis of this highly accessible narration. The scope of the book is global and is aimed at all those interested in a safe, sustainable and equitable planet-our only home.
