The Post-Human Society is a rich unique path-breaking belletristic and literary 'crie de coeur' work - a lyrical expose of all the internal infelicities (social political aesthetic) of the United States of America. In its vivid contrasting of the mores of competition avarice and greed to communitarian co-respecting and co-operative values it abounds with colorful vibrant breathtaking images and tropes. Utilizing a novel First Person Narrative the author Rajani Kanth offers a poignant critique of the rabid runaway materialism that has been the bane of all modernist European societies to date. It is evocative in its approach to the fading genre of the iconic anthropology sociology classics of the yesteryear. Ultimately it is a critique of the ruling ethos of our times: Eurocentrism - i.e. selfish and acquisitive materialism of which the contemporary USA is the trend-setter and the unchallenged gold standard. DR. RAJANI KANTH has an MA in Social Anthropology from the Delhi School of Economics India and a PhD in Economics from the New School for Social Research New York USA. After serving as Economic Advisor to the UN in New York he taught as University Professor and is currently based at Harvard University.
