Recipe for Better World: Unorthodox Education
BOY, WHAT I COULD DO WITH GATES' BILLIONS! is a book that offers a blueprint for "doing something about" changing the things in our lives and in the world that eat into our souls-and pocketbooks today, yesterday, and most likely for the foreseeable future. We grumble at the pollution of our environment, the mindless wars that have been haunting man since he emerged from the caves, the corruption in politics, the booming wave of white collar crime, domestic violence and in our streets, the poor education that little prepares our children for future citizenry, racial hatred, discrimination of the wealthier nations against the poorer ones, the chaos that rampant legal and illegal immigration has created, the woes of out-sourcing, the national and international trade deficits, the conflicting agendas of groups that are ripping our country apart, and the greed that is being fostered by the perversion of the original notion of the Great American Dream. Missionaries and national programs have labored to make meaningful changes and improvements. Various charity groups and individuals like Bill Gates and Warren Buffet have joined the battle to reduce the wages of poverty around the world. As noble and valuable as these efforts may be, none of them probes deeply enough into the causes of the deadly spiritual and intellectual malaise that keeps our vicious world circle turning. David Hernandez proposes an educational system and charity program designed to reach into the basic values and beliefs that have fueled all that which has brought us to this costly and baneful juncture.
