Wonder what system will replace capitalism & communism when they're gone? Will Planet Earth make it through the 90's? HUMANSTORY addresses these questions with humor & insight. Using cartoon panels to illustrate the text, the book depicts the development of 'mental types' which have influenced human history: laborers, warriors, intellectuals & capitalists. Each type has dominated society in its turn; waging terrible wars, carving great empires, & determining the movement of civilization. Using the model proposed by philosopher P.R. Sarkar, HUMANSTORY illustrates the inevitable rise & fall of each type, showing how its benevolent influence on society in the beginning of a cycle turned into a strangling grip at the end. Most importantly, HUMANSTORY shows how the transition is made from one era to the next, whether through evolution or revolution. HUMANSTORY predicts the rise of an entirely new class of people, one that is destined to lead humanity from the worn-out dogmas of the past to the wholistic, visionary society of the future. HUMANSTORY tells an important story in a most entertaining way.Logan, Ron is the author of 'HumanStory: Human History from the Dawn of Time to the Dawn of the New Age' with ISBN 9780945934011 and ISBN 0945934017.
