Why Johnny Can't Run, Swim, Pull, Dig, Slither, Etc.

This remarkable little book can be read on as many levels as there are catagories of readers. Superficially it could be called a rational response to Jonathon Livingston Seagull, but it bears more resemblence to Jonathon Swift. This book is however more than an intellectual Rorschach. It is a trip, through a looking glass(lightly), down a yellow brick road (sprightly)-to tomorrow, to the future. Be prepared for a shock.

A lot of obsessive erudition went into this rambling commentary that combs history, mythology, and the human unconscious for explanations of what the hell is going on in today's world. As the cover blurb says, "One reader will find the delight of a children's fairytale and another, a systematic statement of philosophy. One will find an art history, another a critique of education; some will find all, some none. This book is, however, more than an intellectual Rorschach. It is a trip, through a looking glass, down a yellow brick road--to tomorrow, to the future. Be prepared for a shock."They're not exaggerating. Illustrated with some fascinating artifact photos. A real oddity and a treat for those who relish such things...
