Overview
Overview
Most non-fiction books discuss problems and opportunities from the point of view of a particular discipline. Politics or economics, business, information systems, history, warfare, religion, philosophy, international relations, linguistics or whatever the principal expertise of the author may be. But academic knowledge has become so specialized that experts can no longer communicate with each other.
This book presents all of these subjects, briefly, as essential ingredients of a well-balanced mind. Specialists must step back occasionally and review their relationship with the rest of humanity.
Global men and women must be all-rounders, as many were in the Age of Enlightenment. We have lost the capacity to be all things to all people. The author hopes that his book will assist the intelligent world to re-consider the controversial aspects of modern life with an open mind.
Above all, people who wish to contribute to globalization should be able to read and write in English as well as in their home language.
The challenge to the present English Speaking People is to assist that process by all possible means, for the benefit of the world.
