"Unthinking respect for authority is the greatest enemy of truth."--Albert Einstein Drawing on his numerous degrees in the sciences, Perspective author Nathan Shasho offers a new perspective on the nature and history of humans. Through lenses as diverse as anthropology and chemistry, neuropsychology and astronomy, geology and physics, readers delve into the evolution of the universe, Earth, and humans. This includes humanity's "dark side" of conflict, war, genocide, massacres, slavery, and human trafficking. Rather than leaving readers grasping at the pieces, Shasho then puts all this history into perspective and formulates a way of making sense of it all. He offers a light along the path to critical thinking. Appropriate for readers as young as seniors in high school, Perspective makes a useful complement to high school and college curricula as well as an interesting piece for adults seeking a way out of propaganda and indoctrination.

We could take a clue from Nathan Shasho, who wrote the history book Perspective: Making Sense of it All: "Indoctrination and propaganda, coupled with an uninformed public, are powerful tools that have been used throughout history by those who would make us their pawns. Critical thinking, along with a well-informed public, is the only way to combat this indoctrination. Shasho quotes Albert Einstein: "Unthinking respect for authority is the greatest enemy of truth." In reality, if I'm pointing one finger of blame at the pharmaceutical industry, I have to be pointing three others back at myself.
