<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>We want the world to be and feel like ourselves. We believe in those things that are like us and reject everything else. But there are a lot of groups of "us" who believe in other things. So, the world is not like you WANT it to be. It is not even like you THINK it is. We have to grasp what the real world is like, if we are collectively going to survive on earth by solving problems of overpopulation, such as: Poverty, Pandemics, Climate Change.
