Elephants on Roller Skates

We have all learned to acknowledge the "elephant in the room", the unspoken issue that is affecting our ability to move forward. However, after getting the issue into the open, time passes and we begin to stop paying close attention to the issue. It begins to slip away from us, while still affecting our views and our behaviour. The elephant in the room has become an elephant on roller skates. This book looks at some familiar issues that we seem to notice for a while, and then stop subjecting to careful consideration: they range from the free market, telling the truth, and liberty through to more personal issues concerned with mutual respect, entitlement, and our willingness to give way to the opinions of others. There are many such escaped elephants out there. This is both an introduction to some of these issues, and an encouragement for you to become an elephant spotter. Good luck!
