Why do major issues like child abuse, poverty and racism continually plague us? Why can’t we resolve them?

George Bryant probes twelve current social problems, discusses the pros and cons of each, and offers suggestions for positive progress.

Basically, he says, we tend to provide only two-dimensional solutions, ignoring the ‘spiritual’ side of humanity. We are good at attacking the symptoms of social dysfunction but poor at investigating the causes. We need to use three dimensional thinking.

A unique, brave expose.

“Humankind, in its excitement and innate curiosity, keeps dreaming up further possibilities.” (p 96)

“We need to realise afresh that each person, whatever his/her race or colour, is unique and important.” (p156)

“We need a new kind of politics that will transcend adversarial attitudes and party bickering, a politics that will lead to collaboration on major unresolved issues, a politics that addresses the deepest values of human beings, rather than just appealing to self interest and pressure groups.” (p184)

“Nothing is impossible, except in our own thinking.” (p 200)

“Enough of us believing enough can soar to the greatest heights.” (p200)
