Foremost, the book places side-by-side philosophical and spiritual writings next to more standard or traditional news-style reports on extremely relevant, major world events. Readers are given another, valuable perspective too often entirely excluded from debates and discussions in the halls of governments, corporate offices or high-powered media newsrooms.
