This book represents a turning point in my philosophy, stemming from my experiences as an advocate for social justice. For many years I have observed seemingly unsolvable human conflicts, the generational damage of bad choices, and the perils of rigid social and economic inequality. I watched one social issue after another emerge, each as dire as the last. I began to wonder, as many do from time to time, if I am really making a difference. As an avid reader of science magazines I began to transfer my interest in the concept of a unifying principle from science to social philosophy. I began to wonder if there was one principle that could explain the myriad of human conflicts and suffering, and perhaps more importantly offer some guidance on a solution. From this curiosity grew serious research into human understanding, and eventually my philosophy on the purpose of life. This book is primarily written from one type of person to others who share the same three traits: being dedicated to making the world a better place, frustrated by realizing that we appear to be losing ground fast, and open to a new context for human life.

    Immanuel Kant
    Kant’s Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals is one of the most important works in modern moral philosophy. It belongs beside Plato, Aristotle, Machiavelli, and Hobbes.

  • On the Duty of Civil Disobedience
    HENRY DAVID THOREAU
    Civil Disobedience argues that citizens should not permit their governments to overrule their consciences, and that they have a duty to avoid allowing their acquiescence to enable the government to make them the agents of injustice. Thoreau was motivated in part by his disgust with slavery and the Mexican-American War, but the sentiments he expresses here are just as pertinent ...

    Friedrich Nietzsche
    Nietzsche, though primarily a philosopher, wrote widely on art, philology, history, religion, tragedy, culture, and science.  In 1886, at the height of his powers, he published Beyond Good and Evil.  Here he examines much of the best of human thought--dogmatic philosophy, Judeo-Christian morality, science and democracy – and finds it lacking.  Rejecting “slave-morality” he pres...
