“We are living in a fantastic time, brimming with opportunities and potential—both wonderful and terrible. We are posed on the brink of immortality—or extinction. Our path ahead is hazy—only we, today, right now—can make it clear. A new age awaits humanity and our terrestrial biosphere. Do we choose death and obscurity—or do we choose life and hope? Free space settlement offers the latter and our chance to achieve it has just gotten a lot easier.”

“This idea probably is not for you if you think human beings are the problem, rather than the solution. There are those who equate human population growth to a bomb needing to be defused or a cancer needing to be excised. This book takes a different view: that humanity and civilization, are, on balance, wonderful. That people are not the problem but a resource, and a miracle. After all, humans must be productive or there would be no art, no cuisine, no infrastructure, no science nor any of the almost magical technology that surrounds us everyday. While the sins of mankind are extensive and well documented, humans must also be wonderful because without them the world would not have cuddly pets, cute babies, laughing friends or loving families.”
