'For much of my life, [...] I was unaware that my words echoed a script I was conditioned to follow, that the lights illuminated only that which I expected to see, and that the orchestra was merely a recording that had been playing since long before my birth.' -Nathan J. MurphyIn The Ideas That Rule Us, political theory researcher, author, and technology business owner Nathan J.

He also examines the undeniable bond between the abstract and the emotional-a relationship that plays a dominant role in the human condition... and the quality of our lived experience.In The Ideas That Rule Us, you will learn:The three major ideological fights that are playing out now - and will affect societies worldwide in coming decades, including globalization, the housing crisis and drug legalization and acceptanceHow ideology has been used to change history and influence societal norms, including a three-point plan historically used by wicked elites to change the ideologies of the poor in many different countriesWhere ideologies go to die, and why major overriding ideas take 50-60 years to evolve, such as the gradual reduction in the influence of Christianity in the UK.Whether you want to understand how your social environment has impacted who you, or you’re a political activist who wants to learn how to leverage that which underlies political expression, The Ideas That Rule Us is your key to unlocking a new understanding of a very complex and influential topic.'A well-researched, thought-provoking reconsideration of society’s sacred cows.'- KIRKUS Reviews - Our Verdict: GET IT
