The Search For Apocalypse
A reason for the human attraction to predictions of catastrophe
by Michael R Hutchinson
In The Search for Apocalypse, Michael R Hutchinson delves into humanity’s primal fears and our collective fascination with doom-laden forecasts. Drawing upon an array of historical, scientific, and philosophical perspectives, Hutchinson questions the prevalent societal norms that often depend on ‘proof by consensus.’
Evoking past apocalyptic prophecies, the book challenges the very foundations of the fear-mongering narratives perpetuated across centuries. As we navigate through an era punctuated by sensationalism and ‘end-of-days’ predictions, Hutchinson argues that our responses are not mere reactions to cherry-picked external threats, but rather outcomes dictated by our genetically inherited survival instinct. This intricate exploration forces us to confront our embedded anxieties, particularly in a world increasingly driven by alarmist politics and media. Are we prisoners of our own primal fears, easily manipulated into compliance?
