Introducing a New World Order

The author of this book is currently an eighty-seven-year-old ex-bank employee who retired after forty-one years of service from the same institution. He worked all over South Africa and eventually settled with his wife Bets at a centre for the aged (he likes to call it The Vintage Village) in Bloemfontein, South Africa. He was born, grew up and old in a situation where a Third World and a First World have rubbed shoulders for nearly four hundred years and he claims first-hand experience about this state of affairs. He always has been cognitively orientated and with time he felt more uneasy in that contradictory situation and made a study of the how and why to handle this straight-jacket imposed on people like him by society. The result culminated in this work where he daringly claimed to have identified the reason for this and the suicide of mankind looming on the horizon. It needs to be seen as atonement between emotional 'ignorance' and its misnomer emotional 'intelligence'. He will indicate how severely civilisation has and is still suffering from this mass delusion.

The theory is built on coordinating the building blocks of great thinkers of the past and our heritage from evolution. The author demonstrates how mankind failed its first mental test by misinterpreting nature's instincts for the survival of all life. Mankind, not properly understanding its cognitive legacy, mainly still lives by the principle of emotional 'ignorance' driven by nature's fear factor with its various humanised negative manifestations like cruelty and anger, etc. This cognitive dissonance has indeed cost humanity dearly in blood and tears ever since. Due to the fact that you, like all of us, have not chosen to be here, means that you are endowed with a natural gift to address the world's problems, because, states the author: 'Ethics is the guardian Angel of global civilisation. "Do unto others as you would like others to do unto you", is not an empty slogan, but a noble plea to mankind to reciprocate civility.'
