Team Human
Book • 2019
In 'Team Human,' Douglas Rushkoff delivers a call to arms, emphasizing that being human is a team sport.
He argues that society is threatened by a vast antihuman infrastructure that undermines our ability to connect, citing examples such as money becoming a means of exploitation, education turning into an assembly line, and the internet further dividing us.
Rushkoff uses wide-ranging research on human evolution, biology, and psychology to show that working together leads to greater happiness, productivity, and peace.
The book invites readers to reassert their humanity and make the world a better place through collective action.
