How to Flourish in a Fallen World, by Donald DeMarco, engages the reader in an understanding of our common human nature and the problems it faces in a culture that actively pursues, to put it in Saint John Paul II"s terms, a freedom of indifference over a freedom for excellence. Dr. DeMarco"s conclusion is a simple one: "We can flourish in a fallen world by taking advantage of the many gifts that are available to us while living within the truth of our being." In a world of complex problems, it is refreshing to know that such a simple solution is available to us - we merely have to live the truth in love, and we"ll find that we restore by so doing mankind to his proper state.
