Description

From the publisher:

"In Part 1 the author demonstrates at the outset that society must be built on a foundation of morality and must move progressively forward in order to establish itself in universal humanism. Then from the vantage point of that universal humanism, the author examines different issues of education, social justice, and the judicial system; and probes the impacts that practitioners of various professions may have, for better or for worse, on the social body as a whole, depending on the expansiveness of their minds.

In Part 2 the author introduces his theory of history and social change. Economist Ravi Batra has based his best-selling economic books on the Law of the Social Cycle as explained in this book. Historians and futurists are calling this a landmark work in understanding the process of social change.
