Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. How to Manage Your DICK is one of the most unusual books you will ever read. It is also one of the most important. It is a book about self-discovery, and what it means to be a man. How to Manage Your DICK deals humorously, and with a unique and brutal honesty, about a subject desperately in need of critical attention, and all too often left in the backwaters of the human mind and the social agenda. Sean O'Reilly has discovered the Holy Grail of philosophers, saints, sociologists and world leaders, a behavioral Theory of Everything which physicists have sought for generations, which psychologists and psychiatrists have tried to articulate since the days of Freud and Jung, and which philosophers have struggled to outline for millennia. Politicians drone on about the decay of civilization and weak leadership; preachers wail about sin and moral decline; talk show hosts gibber salaciously about celebrity affairs, divorce, wife-beating and graffiti; concerned parents mutter about lewd TV shows, pornography on the Internet, guns and drugs in schools, and assaults on teachers; world leaders mutter, "we must do something" about violence in the Balkans, Africa and the Middle East; op-ed writers snarl about sodomy in the prisons and road rage, but O'Reilly, a former seminarian and prison instructor, tells us what all these problems have in common. He tells us how they relate to Aristotle and Thomas Aquinas, Einstein and Stephen Hawking, Jesus and the Dalai Lama. And in this marvelous book, with an extraordinary talent for fusing filth with metaphysics, marrying obscenity with virtue, O'Reilly articulates their common solution: Dick Management. You will learn how the angle of your dangle is connected to collapsed quantum waves, how your dog nature can be turned to moral advantage, how your basest desires can be surfed without corroding you or those around you, how the veneration of women, children, and the natural world is the highest purpose of your Dick, which you will learn has more than one meaning. Your Dick is the elephant in the room which everyone denies, the Emperor with no clothes, the Dog with no Master. Can anyone pretend that the world's chronic problems, from murder and rape, pillage and war, assault and insult, graffiti and torture, child molesting and domestic abuse, are not in the main caused by men? Only a fool will deny that men are the scourge of the world, they fill the world's prisons, they are the Beast waiting to tear apart your world, rip you limb from limb, set your house on fire, and shit on the ashes. They are Stalin and Hitler, Charles Manson and Saddam Hussein, Jeffrey Dahmer and Pol Pot, Ted Bundy, Idi Amin, and ten thousand nameless demons. They are you and they are I. But your Dick, as Sean O'Reilly tells us, can also be your baton of bounty, your dowsing-rod to the waters of life, your pointer to true happiness, your Obi-Wan Kenobi who will outlive the Darth Vader lurking in your underwear. In How to Manage Your DICK, you will learn that "Your ASS Is Behind Your Dick," you will see how "Ancient DICK Technologies Meet Modern Physics," and learn how to "Negotiate with Your Johnson." You will take the PECER test and you will see where you place on the "Gandhi-Hitler Index." You will cringe as you see yourself in "Portrait of a Creep" but you will also be inspired as you read "How a Real Man Behaves" and the "Management Tips" that follow the chapters. You will quickly come to agree that the cultivation of cyber-kinetic knowledge, or what has traditionally been called virtue is the missing link between the destructive impulses of evolutionary biology and the achievement of excellence as a human being. You will rediscover the ancient wheel of common sense as you read about the rewards of virtue and continence as they apply to everyday activities such as driving and putting u Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.

Authority, expressed in both dictatorship and civil governance, toils with and against various moral imperatives expressed in the impulse towards democracy or rule by the people. Adding further to this force, running like a river of discontent through most societies, are religious beliefs that compel legions of believers using the unspoken algorithms of fear and hope in the search for eternal life. What is the relationship between authority, creativity and politics? Is it simply a recognition of potential, and the power to persuade or coerce, or is it a testament to a relationship between the visible world of hard data and an invisible world of inspiration and power just beyond the edge of mind? The Greek word "kratos" means power. A series of "oughts" and "shoulds" bursting with kratos is often generated in human discourse, just beyond the calculations of physical cause and effect, when authority, creativity and politics meet. And where does "ought and "should" meet today? Unfortunately they don't often meet at the usual institutional junctures of politics and society. People are often left scratching their heads at the mindless repetition of slogans by politicians, and even religious leaders, who clearly have no new solutions or creative ideas to offer for pressing institutional or social issues requiring immediate attention. Creativity is now, largely, a creature of individual and corporate enterprise and not something we attribute to politics. Politicians of all stripes tend to be mired in the accretions of legacy-driven politics and dog-whistle sloganeering. The notion of "ought," despite the dismal political and judicial scene, seems hard-wired into human consciousness, even though its interpretations vary greatly. It is no stretch to say that how we conceive of "ought," either politically, philosophically or scientifically and how it is prioritized is at the root of many creative decisions, both personal and political. Do we arouse our sense of creativity to engage the moral imperative of "ought," or do we engage our appetites to suppress the notion of "ought"? There is a dark side, however, even beyond misuse of creativity: it is the non-use of creativity. As Carl Jung noted: "One of the most destructive forces is unused creative power. If a man out of laziness does not use his creative energy, his psychic energy turns to sheer poison." Another way of understanding this is to look at what happens when the mind is not presented with or given the necessary facts about human transformation and growth. The physicist Edward Teller, one of the fathers of the atomic bomb, pointed to an idea that is seldom reflected on by either academia or the media: "The extinction of the human race will come from its inability to emotionally comprehend the exponential function." The various forms of governance over the centuries, including our own, are being shaped by a dynamic and hidden force that is constantly seeking renewal in the fountain of truth and life. A more perfect form of government that has the best features of the American system, with some of the power of old forms of governance, is now emerging. The Third Imperium will, likely, take a form that echoes the authority of the Old Roman Empire and the later Holy Roman Empire. The Third Imperium will represent a set of universal moral values and religious tolerances coupled with growth-oriented economic policies that puts people first. It will be a state that in terms of efficiency and effectiveness will be different than any system of governance that has ever existed. It will be, finally and hopefully, government of, by and for the people. This item is printed on demand.
