"Change the story, change the future: A living economy for a living earth" by David C. Korten (2015) (http://bit.ly/3n8iixH)

“Cells can and do go rogue and become a threat to the whole. Cancer is an example. The healthy cells self-organize to eliminate them. If they fail, the body dies and the rogue cells thus self-eliminate. ||| We might take this as a warning. We humans are behaving as rogue cells in the body of Living Earth and have activated Earth’s defenses, notably climate change and deadly infectious diseases” (p. 67).
