This is what reviewers are saying:

“Nothing less than a 123-minute cat scan of the planet and its twenty-first century human and non-human condition.”
Carolyn Baker, www.carolynbaker.org

“Perhaps the most important media message of our time.”
Jan Lundberg at CultureChange.org

“Hundreds of my readers have told me that my novel Ishmael should be read in every high school classroom in the world. Naturally I’d be delighted to see this happen, but I really think it would be more to the point to have What a Way to Go: Life at the End of Empire seen in every high school classroom in the world! The two hours of this documentary are two hours that bring hope for the future of humanity by awakening and informing in the most profound yet lucid way imaginable.”
Daniel Quinn, author of Ishmael and Tales of Adam
