{"product_id":"beyond-us-fred-matser-9781789045512","title":"Beyond Us: A Humanitarian's Perspective on Our Values, Beliefs and Way of Life","description":"This short and vigorous book consists of a penetrating collection of interrelated essays whose defining characteristic is that they pin down, magnify and mirror back to us, with embarrassing clarity and force, our most dysfunctional yet unexamined ways of thinking, living and relating to each other in the early 21st century. Our ills are diagnosed with x-ray vision and laser precision. \u003cbr\u003eThe book assesses our situation from a neutral vantage point outside the cultural echo chamber of values, opinions and beliefs in which most of us find ourselves immersed. In doing so, it reveals what most of us can't see. It confronts us with unpleasant truths about ourselves, the acknowledgement of which is imperative if we are to heal and improve our lives. The book also points to sane ways forward, and the appropriateness of these ways become self-evident once they are elucidated.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fred Matser\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1789045517\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781789045512\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Iff Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 120\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.50w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/14\/2020","brand":"Fred Matser","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43988995014911,"sku":"9781789045512","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_90cf9044-57e3-400c-b372-cc7728f6f324.jpg?v=1683297333","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/beyond-us-fred-matser-9781789045512","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
