The aftereffect of the book is the enhanced capacity for diversity, which comes from examining and redefining key parts of popular history, language and perceptions learned since childhood. Written with an impartial view of the past, this text shows how current ideas, perspectives, fears and realities came to be. By examining common global human attitudes and emotions in specific survival situations over time, it shows how groups and individuals have become who they are. The standard premises used to solve contemporary social problems have lacked insight. In studying the terms that we use to define our world we find clarity by understanding the mindsets that created them. The resulting new understanding can socially bring us into the 21st century. This is my planet where I live with my people. Thoughts From Our Readers: ”This book is clearly about why a divided America does not get along and how it can.” -A.
