This book was a long-standing idea that was finally realized as a part of the Kaleidoscope Books project. It draws into focus 8 of the most critical aspects of my novel, Lu Mountain, the completing volume of my 12-volume series "The Lodging for the Rose." The series had been intended as a high-level exploration of how it became possible for leading edge nations with advanced cultural development to be drawn into the trap of fascism, looting, war, brutality, to the point that several of them have amassed the physical capability to eradicate humanity from of the face of the Earth with nuclear war, while an ever greater challenge, the Ice Age Challenge looms on the near horizon, that the science community has been taught to ignore and in some cases actively hide. And more than that, the series had been intended to explore the fundamental principle that can raise humanity out of its trap. This fundamental principle appears to be the Principle of Universal Love, an all-embracing love for the humanity that we all share and are a part of. When in 1648 a peace treaty was forged that ended almost 100 years of war, known as the Treaty of Westphalia, a type of World-Peace Treaty that still stands to some degree as a foundation for modern civilization, the high-level principle that was developed was termed the Principle of the Advantage of the Other. When the USA was founded, the guiding high-level principle was termed the Principle of the General Welfare. Humanity has moved away from these principles to universal looting, terror, war, and in some cases to "brutality without mercy," which was developed in the background to the advancing systems of empire. Great nations were destroyed on the empire course whenever they became drawn into it. The USA is a modern example among many. In this rapidly advancing context, the modern 'Western" world, the leading imperial world, has conditioned itself against its own survival. The outcome is assured unless society rediscovers its humanity and raises itself out of the current trap. Whether or not this liberation will be achieved remains to be seen. There is a movement in progress in the world today, towards the needed liberation of humanity from its small-minded inhumanity. This liberation movement didn't exist at the time the novel was written but is in progress now. The liberation movement comes out of China, carried by the power of China's amazing economic development and industrialization. The potential exists in this arena for a New World to be created that the return of the Ice Age cannot affect, that will likely begin in the 2050s. When this becomes the course of the world, humanity writes itself a ticket for its survival. The book presented here opens with this prospect, under the heading, Queen of the New Law. The book ends with a second ending, a tragic ending in which war destroys the achievements of humanity and much of humanity with it. In the real world both options are possible. In between the two poles critical concepts are developed that can assure an outcome in the real world that is not fictional, but powerful and real, and is of a brightness in which we can all survive and advance and develop for evermore.. - Published by Cygni Communications Ltd.
