  • The Girl from Spaceship Earth: A True Story

    Patricia Ravasio

    eBook (Chapman Park Books, Jan. 14, 2018)
    A true story of a life entwined with the utopian ideas of twentieth-century American genius Buckminster Fuller. Through a face-paced narrative about a girl inspired by the famous Bucky to try and save the world, The Girl From Spaceship Earth' shares the profoundly relevant wisdom of the man once known as the planet's friendly genius. It's funny, entertaining and true, and may even share wisdom for getting us beyond our current planetary crisis. At the very least, it will sharpen your understanding of how we got into the mess we're in, and it will help you climb out of your comfort zones to become part of the solution.Endorsed by Bill McKibben, as only he could say it: "...It also proves serious is not necessarily synonymous with solemn.""It's not about religion or nationality; it is for everyone who cares about planet earth and those who inhabit it," wrote one reader. Another wrote: "I had no idea who Buckminster Fuller was before I read it. Now I am a fan and believer and want to try to answer his call to action. I believe "it takes a village" and hope that others will join this call to action before it is too late."
