About the Author
Australian biologist Jeremy Griffith, born in 1945, was raised on a sheep station in NSW, Australia, educated at Geelong Grammar School in Victoria, Australia and later graduated in biology from Sydney University. He spent six years in the wilds of Tasmania where he undertook the most thorough investigation ever into the plight of the Tasmanian Tiger. During this time Jeremy shifted his exploratory focus to humanity, which has remained his life objective. Jeremy is a patron of the World Transformation Movement (WTM), a non-profit organisation dedicated to promoting analysis of the human condition. He is the author of five books and his work has received endorsements from many of the world's leading scientists.

Format:Paperback
I strongly urge any readers of Jeremy Griffith's book `Beyond The Human Condition' to also look at his 1988 book `Free: The End of The Human Condition' and probably even more significantly his 2003 book `A Species In Denial', which has become a Bestseller in Australia and New Zealand and continues to receive critical acclaim.
These books are also available on www.amazon.com - the page for `A Species In Denial' contains an extraordinarily supportive review from one of the world's leading scientists. I also encourage readers to visit the website www.humancondition.info for even more recent publications and essays by Jeremy Griffith.

Reason amidst human existence

A wonderful book.
The exceptional range of human behaviour - for good and evil- is explained in evolutionary terms.
We are exposed to a mass of information today, about ourselves. We cope poorly with all of this. Conclusions are cast out every minute and behaviour is erratic.
Jeremy Grirrith supports human development and almost caresses us through the mundane and the spiritual with reason and compassion.
