This book explores the nature of power in persons, groups, and
nations by asking a question that we can understand in contemporary
terms: what would Bill Gates do if he had Hitler's absolute power?
It is a sociological question that exposes power as a tool of
control over the powerless, not as a psychological trait or manners
of personal interactions. With Hitler's power, any individual,
group, or nation could become as crazy as Hitler or as cruel as the
Nazis. Call from the Cave argues that the savage struggle for
power, exemplified in the free market system of America-history's
first and purest "natural" society-is in our very human nature. In
the footsteps of the ancient Romans and the recent Nazis, we push
on in every waking moment of our lives to expand our power and to
control the souls and minds of other human beings to do our
bidding. The book concludes that this is the very destiny of
humanity we cannot escape.
