The Ignoble Paradox of Man is not about hypocrisy alone. Nor is it a cure-all for problems concerning inequality. The book seeks to explore and explain how absurdities can influence our thought processes, emotions, and other manifestations over time. Complexity in the book is designed to enhance readers' comprehension and encourage critical thinking, not only about sociocultural issues, but the nature of intergroup relations here in America and abroad. McGuire wants the reader to think, analyze, and probe the information presented. To engage people in lively controversy about their ignoble motives will help us deal with many of the important issues both racial and ethnic minorities confront in their everyday, ordinary lives.
