About this audiobook
This book (in dialogue form) explains what is the nature of politics, and what is the anthropological evolution of the political party by defining the essence of the political left and right and their respective raisons d’etre, what motivates them, and the nature of their ethics. The explanation is contained in 7 Dictums (one set of seven principles each for the Left and the Right). Further, the book demonstrates how the Dictums are relative and explanatory to the rise and fall of empires and the causes of war.
Although the book is philosophical in nature, it is exciting to read, especially for a conservative, as the book explains the nature of the incomprehensible habits and actions of the left and whence they come. Further, this work comes up with some remarkable revelations such as the conclusion that peace and the free market are the same thing!

Author
Christopher Angle
The author, Chris Angle, took an interest in philosophy starting at the University of Michigan where the courses introduced him to the many famous works among which were the dialogues of Plato and the character of Socrates which intrigued and influenced him forever afterwards. At the U of M, Angle decided that he would write philosophical works of his own. But preparatory to that, he realized that in order to begin this endeavor, he should have to be able to define philosophical concepts. Angle found that to understand these concepts, learning about the biological history and evolution of man would be insightful. And, indeed it was. Angle's explications of many philosophical concepts often involve reference to biological anthropology.
