About the Book

What's going on in the world?
Inflation eating at your budget; migrants pushing through your borders; mortgage and interest rates threatening your house and savings; your 'pouvoir d'achat' -your income- shortened; safety in your cities being menaced; your democracy rigged and freedom restrained; racial prejudice sharpened; your commonwealth market agreement is rather devouring your country; your government without clues; an economic, social, environmental and energy crises on the horizon; social movements arising; civil demonstrations and police confrontations...
All not so difficult to understand. It is all related to our core values and how they are perversely or unawarely managed. This book explains it all in a simple way with a layer of sarcasm.
Moreover, you will learn what we are really up against in the very near future.

Three Thousand years ago
The fundamental concepts of our social life go back as far as 2,800 years. In that time, humanity has made astounding discoveries, created an extraordinary comfortable and modern world and invented the unthinkable. Yes, we have tamed the natural forces, we have shaped the surface of the planet. We have evolved...no, sorry, we have not.
It is true that we live longer and healthier, but our social life has not changed at all. Our social foundations, debated in the world at its beginning are still being put to the test. We have failed. Our understanding of the ideal society is as good as three thousand years ago. We are no better, hence our civilization is bound to crumble as former empires did, our foundations are fragile, what we believe in is contradictory. We are lost.

The facts you will face in this book.
For starters, you will be confronted with a discussion on those core values of our lives, from democracy, freedom and justice to the free markets, productivity and competitiveness.
You will then take a tour around the flaws and standings of our financial system along with the capital's behavior. Be ready to stumble on your strongly learned believes.
Next, you will be surprised of our real hurdles and main challenges ahead.
Your world will never feel the same again, because our values are fragile, ready to shatter at the tiniest blow
