Sinopsis

Consciously or unconsciously, we humans treasure our ways of life, and we thirst for opportunity. This book is a Twenty-First Century journey through these epic aspirations.âÇÖA unique philosophy drawn from a lifetime of observations of the human condition and the choices inherent in all of us to live a good and happy life.âÇÖá-- Georgina DownerâÇÖMaps core elements of humanity, shines a light on the âÇÖinner beingâÇÖ, and examines âÇÖsharingâÇÖ as a central human mystery. Once started, this book is hard to put aside.âÇÖá-- Rick TudorâÇÖImpressive in its ambition and the depth of its reasoningâÇÖá-- David RuniaâÇÖMakes complex concepts accessible... Provides a hopeful guide as we grapple with who we are, what weâÇÖre doing, and what we want in a disturbing world... We need a human philosophy to quieten our inner voices, re-ignite our imaginative possibilities, and guide us fearlessly forward... This philosophy explores the questions and challenges we meet in making meaningful lives.âÇÖ -- Rosemary BlightThis philosophy elaborates two central ideas - that humans make ways of life, and that we are on our own.A âÇÖLetter To The ReaderâÇÖ and the first chapter overview the book, explain its context, introduce its ideas, and assert the value of human life. They contend that âÇÖhumans make ways of lifeâÇÖ is incontrovertible. They explain how âÇÖhumans are on their ownâÇÖ encapsulates human responsibility and independence. They reflect on reason, nature, religion and history as discussable but unsatisfactory starting points for understanding the human world.The next three chapters explore three aspects of the human world - how measuring is fundamental, how machinery is enabling, and how humans know much but not everything.The following three chapters explore the organization of this world - the distinctions between individuals and groups, the dynamics of humanity, the character of politics, the place of government, the role of decision-makers.The final chapter considers threats, pre-conditions of achievement, and the implications of our being âÇÖmakers of ways of life and on our ownâÇÖ.áThe conclusion pulls the threads together by arguing that âÇÖIf we ask what freedom and diversity come to in the end, the answer is that they are always the lifeblood of the human worldâÇÖ.
