The Real Questions Eden to Big Apple
by Anthony Arkell
Many people, whether well educated or not, seem perplexed in today's world.
Commentators in the media report, analyze, and suggest, but always miss the key point.
Such everyday questions as house prices, green belts, interest rates and currency levels; all seem to be subjects that baffle the wisest observer. Politicians too find the problems intractable.
In this book a deep, but clear insight illuminates each question.
Because the same fundamental analysis affects wage levels, poverty, law and order, banking and money, world debt and the third world, Anthony Arkell’s book gives a new perspective to these and many other questions.
With chapters on war, immigration, congestion, planning, free trade, agriculture, cyberspace, money, banking, taxation, charities, churches, art, and the thorny question of Europe, there is much to interest the widest spectrum of readers.
A chapter on political parties demonstrates the author's political impartiality, and shows how each party has failed to understand the problems that developed in the industrial and post-industrial economies.
But this is not a political book, nor an economic textbook. It is deliberately written in a non-technical style to appeal to a wide readership. Chapters are short, and technical terms are avoided.
It is a book for all time. Its message applies to all nations and all societies. The questions raised are real questions that every member of society asks themselves and each other. We all need some new light on these questions to enable us to elect better and more appropriate governments, and to move forward to a more prosperous and stable society.
Because politicians are focused only on the short term, the electorate itself must keep in its collective conscious the long term goals, and elect governments that measure up to their high standards at each election. This book should help to do just that.
