The ABCs of Human Survival examines the effect of militantnationalism and the lawlessness of powerful states on the well-being ofindividuals, local communities, and global citizenship. Based on theanalysis of world events, Dr. Arthur Clark presents militantnationalism as a pathological pattern of thinking that threatens oursecurity, while emphasizing effective democracy and international lawas indispensable frameworks for human protection.
Within the contexts of history, sociology, philosophy, andspirituality, The ABCs of Human Survival calls into questionthe assumptions of consumer culture and offers, as an alternative,strategies to improve overall well-being through the important choiceswe make as individuals.
Dr. Arthur Clark is a Professor of Neuropathology andClinical Neurosciences at the University of Calgary, and an activestaff neuropathologist at the Foothills Hospital in Calgary. He carrieslifelong experience with militant nationalist culture, having come ofage during the Vietnam War and serving two years as Captain in theUnited States Army Medical Corps. In 1995, in honour of his late wife,he established the Dr. Irma M. Parhad Programmes at the University ofCalgary, which focus on ways to improve worldwide health and well-beingwithin the framework of international law.
