Title: Progress vs Parasites Author: Douglas Carswell Narrator: Russell Bentley Format: mp3 Length: 10 hrs and 11 mins Release date: 09-05-19 Ratings: 5 out of 5 stars, 4 ratings Genres: Civilization Publisher's Summary: The change in our ancestors' behaviour was barely perceptible at first. Only a few clues in the archaeological record - sea shells, ochre and stone tools exchanged over long distances - hint at what was to come. Today, a network of interdependence and trade spans the planet - lifting most of our species out of the grinding poverty of the past. But for much of history this engine of human progress stalled, with societies rigged in the interests of small parasitic elites.
