Synopsis

In Crises on Cosmos, Dr. Theo Addo emphasizes a common theme: most people who are discounted by society as no good are simply individuals or populations who have not been exposed to valuable knowledge, or have failed by their own doing to keep focused and capitalize on their opportunities.

The book examines the value of knowledge and asserts that knowledge is so priceless that without it life itself is unsustainable. It further describes how certain longstanding societal practices deemed as norms tend to disenfranchise huge sectors of populations based on race and poverty.

Dr. Addo brings a different perspective to our many crises and affirms that the repercussions of our wrong decisions, teachings, and policies, and sometimes our denial of obvious inferences and truths hardly ever favor us. Those repercussions often live on to fight another day in completely different and more militant forms. Yet if we are able to muster hope we can overcome adversity.

Biographie de l'auteur

Dr. Theo Addo is a practicing physician who lives in the United States with his wife and two children. Growing up in Africa, in a school with limited resources, he barely made it to high school. He worked tirelessly to reverse the course such a beginning is expected to take. From his own experiences and those of many others, Dr. Addo has concluded that, contrary to popular belief, little of one's accomplishments depend on inborn characteristics. He maintains that unexceptional knowledge that is given opportunity can accomplish much more than exceptional talents that are choked by a lack of opportunity. Dr. Addo is also the author of Tug of War: Dilemma of the Contemporary Slave, Servant and Master.
