Summary, etc. | "The Game Must Go On" is a book for those who want to go beyond "knowing" to "understanding". Its chapters focus on understanding government, free enterprise, education, equality, energy, religion, sex and the environment. The author begins by tracing each topic to its fundamentals and proceeds to sketch out its evolution from its foundations to its current role in the world. What is going on with the environment? Why does the USA continued to rely on foreign oil supplies? What's the matter with free enterprise? Each topic is examined and projected into the future, following past trends and the timeless realities that govern the progress of societies. What should we do about public education? Is there a need for organized religion? The discussion is provocative, makes practical proposals and offers hope for the future. How we deal with each of these disparate issues is vitally important to the survival of our species and to the progress of our civilization. Each issue is but a tree in an interdependent Forest of Things that constitutes the social eco-system of a modern society. In this trackless forest we are looking for direction as we play out the game of civilization-building. But to what end? |
