Christopher Ryan

Powell's City of Books 1005 W Burnside Street, Portland, OR, United States

In his new book, Civilized to Death: The Price of Progress (Avid Reader/Simon & Schuster), Christopher Ryan, bestselling coauthor of Sex at Dawn, explores the ways in which “progress” has perverted the way we live: how we eat, learn, feel, mate, parent, communicate, work, and die. Ryan makes the claim that we should start looking backwards to find our way into a better future.
