The Antidote for War and Discontent is a compilation of
philosophical essays and poems centered around the fundamental
principles of wisdom gained through the words of five great
philosophers and the teachers of agape.
Robert Price, a former Baptist minister who has been in private
practice as a psychotherapist and mental health consultant for over
forty years, shares a thesis that examines not only the laws of
evolution in order to gain a better understanding of competition
for selection, but also how human nature can either sink us or lift
us up, depending on the application of either knowledge or love.
Price applies the observations of Socrates, Epicurus, Epictetus,
Aristotle, and Plato to practical modern day problems and offers
insight into how human nature can potentially be transformed in
order to make competition, and all laws of nature within us, more
progressively positive than negative. Finally, Price studies the
Greek philosophy that details three kinds of love as well as their
meanings, expressions, and effects.
Price presents a compelling case for a new way of thinking
about the power of nature and the role evolution plays in securing
a cultural evolution that ensures a better and safer human
species.
