by Philip McShane (Author)

McShane's broad interest is in finding a full effective cultural basis of a future humanity. In *The Future: Core Precepts in Supramolecular Method and Nanochemistry* (2019), he expressed what he considers the effective road forward. The present book enlarges on that reach. The effective road involves a clear operative distinction between the negative Anthropocene, in which we presently live shabbily and destructively, and the positive Anthropocene towards which we must work slowly and democratically, against empires of idiocy, by tuning into the chemistry of our desires. This little book moves along with many twists and turns, but it is also a straightforward help to begin to read properly the two main treatments by Lonergan of the topic of Interpretation: Section 3 of chapter 17 of *Insight*, and chapter 7 of *Method in Theology*.
