PREFACE
The world we have grown to know is a place where individual competition – wholesome or unwholesome – is prioritized over cooperation. This has driven us away from our natural design – the way our ancestral communities lived espousing egalitarianism plus fair sharing – and this was the order of their days. Many of us grew up sequestered; that even the closest person on the estate contiguous to ours is perpetually a stranger.
Gun violence is perpetrated not only by illegal, but legal possessors of guns which include the police who are funded with taxpayers’ money and yet they kill, without compunction, the taxpayers they are to protect also, some citizens too have started taking laws into their hands by acting irresponsibly, attacking police commissioned by our government. Sadly, all these drive us close to a state of anarchy!!!
This book also takes a look at Donald Trump’s proposal to tackle terrorism and the proposal was scrutinized using scientific reasons, and conclusion was based not on emotions but facts arising from numerous researches.
Surprisingly, our advancements in technology and medicine could not spare us the struggles against the pangs of poverty, hatred, avarice in high places, rampage killings (I pray the innocent souls lost to various public mass shootings and killings across the land find repose in heaven), depression and suicide rates which are arguably unprecedentedly higher than any time in our history.
This book engages and evaluates some scientific data to arrive at some points. This book is also produced to awaken our consciousness to these societal ailments and intimate us with possible natural panaceas. Internal cohesion was one of the essential solutions to the vices we have invoked by precariously recreating our society. How some communities like that of Kungs have been able to fight against all odds to remain cohesive was evaluated in a view of determining existential clues that might prove essential to mitigate our societal ills.
It is both a riveting and unravelling account of documented evidences and scientific proofs of how to achieve a community with less social vices. This book will also engage you in a mnemonic trip to the lives of our ancestors, how they thrived even without the flamboyant technologies of today that has failed to heal our wounds. It is a must-read!
