About the book

Disturbed by the profound sense of disorientation that appears to afflict many of our cultural institutions, universities and schools, the author was prompted to write this book as he thinks the public deserves a high quality of debate and, as an audience with infinite potential, should command far greater respect.

Social and ethical issues
Violence and abuse in society
Health, illness and addiction: social aspects
