I love this book!

The kind of growth Western culture has experienced over the past three hundred years would be considered a sign of gross malfunction in any other context. Healthy growth is paced differently-it does not absorb or destroy everything living around it. It is cancerous cells that grow and reproduce rapidly in total disregard of their connection with surrounding cells. From this viewpoint technology would have to be regarded as a cancer on human culture, Western culture a cancer on the human species, and the human species as a cancer on terrestrial life-a cancer that may in the end be treated by radiation and radical surgery at the same time.
