Publicity
Brian D. McLean, author of Our Global Crisis, was recently featured in Reader Views, where he shared the inspiration behind his thought-provoking book. Drawing on over a decade of observation, McLean discusses how humanity’s evolving behavior has impacted our relationship with the planet and its resources. He highlights the flaws in our perception of limitless resources and the urgency to address the crisis we face.
Fundamentally, Our Global Crisis examines how the evolution of human behavior has contributed to our past survival, and how flaws in that evolutionary process are affecting our relationship with the planet and its species. The subtitle of the book, We’ll Never Run Out!, reflects that flawed relationship and how we look at bountiful resources as being “limitless,” without considering the possibility that they could ever be depleted.

Our Global Crisis examines those flaws in our nature while also providing avenues that we can explore to remediate the damaged relationship we have with this planet and life upon it.
Tellwell author Lynn Gallant Blackburn is featured in Publishers Newswire for her powerful book, For the Love of My Sister. This deeply personal work honors her sister Paula, who tragically lost her life to domestic violence in 2005. Lynn advocates for legislative change to support victims of intimate partner violence and raise awareness about gender-based violence. With proceeds supporting charities for women affected by violence, Lynn is using Paula’s legacy to inspire change and prevent other families from experiencing similar loss.
This book isn’t just about sharing Paula’s story; it’s about challenging the system status quo and preventing other families from experiencing the same devastating loss.
