“I am both astounded and awed by the time, effort and thought—as well as the courage—of this author to bring to light the many serious problems and issues facing, not just Americans… With quotes from revered leaders, each a powerful voice in their field, we learn there are things we can do. But first, our thinking must reflect the principles of democracy, peace, and empathy for others regardless of race, creed, color, and financial standing in the universe. Only when we see all others worthy of respect and compassion can we hope to achieve it for ourselves… Truly a ten-star read and an awakening, even if unwanted, for all of us.” International Review of Books.
