Split by Sun, Hardcover by Faunce, Tom, ISBN 1786345056, ISBN-13 9781786345059, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US "Split by Sun is a synthesis of scientific and policy research into the globalisation of artificial photosynthesis, blended with utopian and dystopian fiction. Th explores significant questions about humanity' responsibilities and use of new technologies against the dramatic backdrop of a future Earth where every road and building makes clean fuel, food and fertiliser just from water, sun and air. With allusions and allegories to primary scientific and canonical literature, as well as moral philosophy and jurisprudence, it sets the emergence of a contemplative culture based on renewable energy and food technologies against the corporate world of neoliberal economics, privatisation, financial speculation and multilateral trade and investment agreements. Its diverse characters face dangers and personal flaws in urban and wilderness settings across a Sustainocene world where global synthetic photosynthesis, nanotechnology, artificial intelligence and augmented reality systems facilitate universal basic income, health-care and education, corporate marriage, rights of nature, liquid democracy and the elimination of war and nuclear weapons"--Provided by publisher.
