The World of Man is a fresh philosophy of life - including government and politics - which focuses on people and their ways of life. With its increasingly interconnected and educated population of seven billion people, our world needs a philosophical starting point, a vibrant understanding of why freedom matters so much, and practical new ideals such as 'quality (not equality) of opportunity'. It is hoped that this tightly argued but simply expressed book will be useful for ordinary people as well as decision makers and governments.
