Time to Move Again: One Nomad life Hardcover – August 26, 2024

Bound and free? Oxymoron.Our ancestors were free, roaming the Paleolithic landscapes but as soon as they got bound to the land, their freedom started melting faster than an ice cream in the Hawaiian sun. For the next few millennia, their life unfolded like a bad dream: you try to run, but you cannot tear off your feet from the floor boards.Once you can’t move, you become a slave to whoever lords over the land. He can throw you into prison, rape your wife, or push your sons into the meat grinder of a war; not much you can do about it.But when you become mobile, you can move out of his reach, you may become a free agent like your remote ancestors were. Released from the land bondage, we can regain control, make our lives safer and more prosperous for the low price of some basic courage and willingness to experience the world outside our comfort zone.This book, despite its fun form, is a politically subversive work. Attention: If you internalize the message, you may become a freedom-obsessed rebel, a new and unwelcome species in any established power regime. But once you reclaim your mobility and become a modern Nomad, the old authorities cannot control you. You take the reins of your life only to discover how easier and better it becomes when you run it yourself.Each of the twenty chapters spotlight a crucial aspect of Nomadic life. Based on fifty years, the whole adult life, of one “doctor to the world” personal experience, they show self-rule in action, in real life.He did well, and so can you, but there is no point in rediscovering the wheel.Read the book and have a head start.
