A Thumbs-up Review for Apocalypse Of The Barbarians: Inquisitions On Empire, by Sandy Krolick, Ph.D.
Geneva, NY, August 31, 2011 --(PR.com)-- The fiercely independent Islands Press is pleased to announce and share a thumbs-up review for the latest work from their author, Sandy Krolick, Apocalypse Of The Barbarians: Inquisitions On Empire. The actual review can be found on Amazon, under the title of the work.
"Amid a cacophony of strident polemics, sensationalist tracts and shiny trivia that regularly passes for intellectual discussion, an author emerges who joins reason and passion, current events and deep history to create a very accessible, quietly powerful book that invites us to enter a timely and vital conversation.
"Sandy Krolick's Apocalypse of the Barbarians is a collection of short chapters that explore current world events and global conditions from a unique perspective. He is an American who lives in Siberia and who has been transformed by the connection of the people to that landscape. Krolick's academic background in culture, religious studies and philosophy allows him to link current global events to a much deeper socio-cultural history. His vision pierces the tangled market of politics, language, and power, cutting through the facade to reveal another more disturbing reality.
"Krolick's book is an urgent call for all of us to explore and return to a more essential way of being. It's also a siren wailing in the darkness, warning us to take responsibility for our individual and cultural lives, to see through the miasma of corporate and political control, and to act. Krolick engages the reader as a peer. He is compassionate and sensitive as he moves from the global to the personal, from the general to the individual, in search of a more connected, more humane way of being.
"This book is short and you will read it quickly. Read it again, and you will discover even more its richness and complexity."
