- Description:
This book has bones, blood, and flesh; it has soul, and if one holds it long enough, they will feel the pulse of it. It is a book in which the author bypasses people’s emotions, their centripetal nerves, and speaks directly to the conscience of those who read it.
The idea is neither to assert superiority nor to claim a chosen status, but rather to fix those things about which everyone complains, yet no one has the audacity—and perhaps the fundamental competence—to repair these problems.
The societal frustration, despair, and suffering of a people are like cesspools or sewers left unmaintained for far too long, even when overloaded. Sooner or later, these sewers will burst; it is only a matter of time. In this book, the writer undertakes a critical intervention; he performs a sort of maintenance, attempting to fix—or at least appealing to people’s consciences to correct these deeply entrenched failures. It is a call to confront the very decay to which society has turned a blind eye for decades, thereby preventing these problems from exploding or bursting at an unexpected moment, thus catching us utterly ill-equipped and therefore not knowing what to do to manage the fallout.
