Overview'The Right to Sanity' is yet another of John O'Loughlin's cyclical works of aphoristic purism, which goes to the roots of Western insanity and offers both an explanation of and alternative to the dilemma of what he calls the paradoxical primacy afflicting modern society which, granting undue prominence to the inorganic, has the effect of twisting moral and other evaluations towards an anti-natural perspective in which ugliness passes for beauty and falsity for truth, to name but two categories. Also of especial note in this book is an attack on what the author likes to think of as the delusion of curved space in relation to spatial space, and his solution not only to the nature of space as something divisible between straight and curved, but to the division of time, volume, and mass (to move beyond space-time clichés) along similar gender-based, albeit element-conditioned, bipolar lines. - A Centretruths editorial Full Product DetailsAuthor: John O'LoughlinPublisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform Imprint: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform Dimensions: Width: 15.20cm , Height: 0.30cm , Length: 22.90cm Weight: 0.086kg ISBN: 9781502749628ISBN 10: 1502749629 Pages: 54 Publication Date: 07 October 2014 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: Available To Order We have confirmation that this item is in stock with the supplier.

Yeats, was brought from Ireland to England as a young boy and grew up in Hampshire and Surrey, where he attended a variety of state schools. Most of his adult life has been spent in north London, to which he moved from Surrey in 1974, and all but a few of his books have been written there, the majority of which, like this one, are of an intensely philosophical not to say metaphysical and even ideological nature.
