Love Like a Son-of-a-bitch is a proposal for a sustainable
development experiment. The book first describes the current
development model, and then proposes changes in the economy,
political structure, scientific development and the education
system. Then, the book explains which are the phases and the
projects of the experiment, which consists of building a green
city. "All right, enough of weeping, for this book is not a
reminder of our pathetic situation. This book is an indecent
proposal. The world is in crisis, so I guess we just have to
reinvent it, to dream it all over again. History has taught us that
civilisations are born, have an apogee phase and then they decay.
The West seems to be in this latter phase. It is not my intention
to deny the advances of the West, but it is time for a change. We
are stuck culturally, and the only way to reactivate our potential
and imagination is to follow a different path. Even if we are in a
dead-end now, we have the foundation that may precede a powerful
civilisation developed up to be a space civilisation. It is a
matter of not getting attached blindly to the current model, and of
not drowning possibilities of development that are more efficient."
