eBook (PDF), 95 Pages

Free
Throughout culture and beyond resources the battle between personal autonomy and social cohesion persists. On-going is the Big Brother mentality of state and organisations. All around the globe societal influences challenge individual decision-making. But at what point does society's imposition adversely affect original thought? When does social conditioning become programming towards a minority’s ideology? In this short book, Dr Daniel proposes we, the people of society, need to regain our own individual decision-making; we need to think for ourselves. This, he argues, leads naturally to a civilised society, due to the unavoidable reconnection with the same co-operative sense our choices developed from. It is the power of people working to provide the basics for each other that led to the space above survival. To regain our civilised sense might it be such conscious focus is once again required?

Oct 15, 2009"A powerful book that forces the reader to take a step back to the self" Daniel’s “A Civilised Mind?” reads like romantic philosophy. Thought provoking and inspiring, I found myself thinking about his theories between readings. What I found most interesting was Section Two where Daniel asserts that we cannot influence another individual. That individual’s self will never change, only their condition; that we are all sublimely unique and that abhorring this uniqueness adversely influences civilization. Daniel takes us on an expedition to the beginnings of society with his beautifully articulated language: “Different is not always truth and different is not always an improvement.” A powerful and truly inspiring conclusion, but I don’t want to spoil.
