Terry Pratchett Could Save the World

Terry Pratchett Could Save the World

This monograph contends that attending to Pratchett’s work could help to save our world.

Paradoxically it is Pratchett’s choice of fantasy that lets him address the reality of major issues that humanity and the rest of life confront now.
