A Unique and Modern Perspective on Our Flaws

“Most modern freedom is at root fear. It is not so much that we are too bold to endure rules; it is rather that we are too timid to endure responsibilities.” - G. K. Chesterton, What's Wrong with the World

Shaving the child’s head doesn’t solve a lice infestation. To solve the problem, G. K. Chesterton believes, the human kind must look inward and in-depth and address the poverty issues plus the today’s precarious living conditions. But what about the women’s right to vote or the human being’s rapid dehumanization?

This book has been professionally formatted for e-readers and contains a bonus book club leadership guide and discussion questions. We hope you’ll share this book with your friends, neighbors and colleagues and can’t wait to hear what you have to say about it.
