Trade Paperback. Zustand: New. In the midst of the cacophony of strident polemics, sensationalist tracts, and gleaming trivia that passes for intellectual debate, an author emerges who combines reason and passion, current events and deep history to create a very accessible, quietly powerful book that invites us to join a timely…and vital conversation.This book is a collection of short chapters that explore current world events and global conditions from a unique perspective. He is an American who lives in Siberia and who has been transformed by the connection of the people to that landscape. The author's academic background in culture, religious studies and philosophy allows him to link current global events to a much deeper socio-cultural history. His vision pierces the tangled market of politics, language, and power, cutting through the facade to reveal another more disturbing reality.The author's book is an urgent call for all of us to explore and return to a more essential way of being. It's also a siren wailing in the darkness, warning us to take responsibility for our individual and cultural lives, to see through the miasma of corporate and political control, and to act. He engages the reader as a peer. He is compassionate and sensitive as he moves from the global to the personal, from the general to the individual, in search of a more connected, more humane way of being.This book is short and you will read it quickly. Read it again, and you will discover even more its richness and complexity.
