Produktbeschreibung
This book provides an analysis of the individual and social dynamics of racism and hatred, an analysis of the specific characteristics of the most malignant leaders and monsters in history as well as social analyzes of why huge populations of people have chosen to follow these monsters. Their conclusions come back to the existential issues we all face as human beings as well as the social influences perpetuated by an authoritarian patriarchy. The mechanisms of manipulation of totalistic movements are clearly described and upon reflection will be familiar to any reader. The Monsters who have devastated civilization and murdered hundreds of millions of people have always had special advantages that allowed them to keep their subjects in a state of fear, they have controlled the media and had special access to finances, justice departments, military forces, and more often than not had secret police organizations that terrorized people to maintain control behind the scenes. At the same time, we are facing a crisis in the world that threatens our survival. Although our societies have relied on science and reason, we have largely lost the spiritual dimension that used to unite societies of people. It is astonishing that through quantum physics and science the existence of this underlying reality has been confirmed and has given rise to incredibly powerful momentums for social change and the restoration of human dignity. The last section of the book brings together the areas of wisdom explored and focuses especially on the role of the individual who is, after all, the only one to whom the soul is given. Each one of us is responsible for our role in society and the world. The Statue of Liberty on the East Coast was a tremendous symbol of hope for many immigrants who came to America. Annie Moore, was the first Irish immigrant to arrive. It is time that a Statue of Responsibility be built on the West Coast to acknowledge that each one of us has the responsibility of fulfilling our own personal destiny in life and facing our existential ultimate concerns. The role of parents and society remain immensely important and these must be addressed together. Steven Pinker has shown that reason, science and humanism have, in fact, made the world a better place and we must continue these endeavors. We must strengthen our internal spiritual dimensions and both males and females must learn how to better embrace the feminine principle that allows us access to our internal world of feelings and the intuitions of our unconscious. We are being swept up into an amazing and powerful renaissance of change that has the power to restore our human dignity and this is a gift we have the choice of receiving with all our hearts.

Autorenporträt
Dr. Moore has devoted her life to understanding suffering. She was instinctively interested in understanding social movements and fortunate enough to complete her undergraduate degree cum laude at the University of California at Berkeley in 1969. This began her social education with the Black Liberation Movement that went on to inspire the Women's Movement, the Gay Liberation Movement, the Elder People's Movement, the Disabled People's Movement, the Liberation of the Mentally Unwell and liberation movements across the world. At the same time all the young men in her generation were being drafted into the Vietnam Conflict, nine million to be exact. Berkeley was one of the most prominent universities in the War Resistance. This and her experience with SE Asian refugees were the motivation for writing her first book The Secret Fire; When the Land of a Million Elephants Turned Red. It tells the Lao Allies' stories about twelve Lao men who survived the Pathet Lao Death Camps for an average of ten years. Following university, she studied at the Oregon Health Sciences University (OHSU), completing medical school, an internship in the African American community, worked in a migrant labor clinic and then two free clinics, one a former Black Panther clinic and the other supported by the Unitarian Church. For the next seven years she was the primary doctor for the county health department urban semi-emergency street clinic, the alcohol detox center, the men's, women's and children's jails, oversaw the operations of the Venereal Disease and Tuberculosis Clinics and visited the pediatrics clinic. In 1982 she entered the Psychiatry Residency at OHSU where she was an American Psychiatric Association Public Psychiatry Fellow, a Chief Resident and then a faculty member of the Department of Psychiatry. She was triple boarded in General Psychiatry, Addictions and Geriatric Subspecialties and followed these interests as well as cultural interests that took her to New Zealand for fifteen years and the Australia for five years. In these countries new cultures offered further opportunities for clinical work and study including the Pacific Peoples, the Maori, the Aboriginal people and the many migrant people who came to these countries escaping persecution in their homelands. Dr. Moore has had a strong interest in social psychiatry, trauma, addictions, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, existentialism and new emerging treatments for trauma that touch the unconscious. She has become especially interested in the unconscious and how this has been a neglected area of investigation and intervention. She has studied and practiced Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprograming (EMDR) and Davanloo or Intensive Short-Term Psychodynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP) completing special work with Dr. Allan Abbass, the world expert in Halifax, Nova Scotia. She is a brilliant scholar and a gifted clinician and teacher. It is easy to become swept away by her passion for understanding the causes of human suffering and a desire to find a better way for humanity to restore human dignity.
