We are standing at a defining and precarious moment of global proportions and how we come out of this set of crises will determine the direction and scope of our entire unified existence. If we revert to the standard model of increasing alienation, hostility and violence we may descend into a chaos from which there will be no return. The crisis is real and evident.You have never read a book like this before. Rather than examining one crisis after another in piecemeal fashion, the vision presented here is to find the root that’s producing the maelstrom of our aggregated woe. It’s your standard garden-variety dandelion problem. Whacking away at the top, without cutting out the root accomplishes little more than affording you the opportunity of endlessly repeating the same process.What do the Arab Spring, the falling financial dominoes the Occupy Wall Street movement and political gridlock have in common? Read this book. It’s an urgent message for our time.
