The Barbarian in Us Must Find Love
Non-Fiction, Psychology
The political voice of the YouTube Generation
Many people still believe that progress is a given, but that isn’t actually the case. The barbarian inside of us is returning to the surface, and our society is becoming dumber, colder, and more ruthless. Bestselling author Rayk Anders rigorously analyzes the reasons why we fall back into age-old behavioral patterns. Why is the public’s tone always angry? Why does fear and hysteria poison our thought patterns? How much do the power-hungry politicians and unscrupulous media figures affect our lives? Is our dark side our “true nature” - or can we be more than this and overcome the barbaric wiring inside of us?
How can we cope with the worst part of ourselves? We have to block its path - or it will destroy our future.
