Good to Know But Not to Use: Trump Reshufffles the Deck

by Mark David Ledbetter

Overview

As this book goes to publication, Kabul is falling to steely-eyed pre-Enlightenment warlords. Washington D.C., having already fallen to feckless post-Enlightenment warriors of a different sort, has shown itself clueless about how to respond when pre-Enlightenment reality smacks it upside the face. Whether the hordes at the gates are at one place pre-Enlightenment or another post-Enlightenment, a crisis of civilization has been brought to a head by the elections of 2016 and 2020. Good To Know But Not To Use argues for a rediscovery of forgotten Enlightenment principles at this historical juncture.

About the Author

In 2016, Mark Ledbetter returned to America after a forty year sojourn in Japan, raising a family and keeping an eye on America with both the knowledge of an insider and the eyes of an outsider, capping his career with three years as a visiting professor of linguistics at Hosei University in Tokyo. He arrived back in the United States in October of 2016, just in time to witness a political earthquake, one of those historical episodes rife with potential and danger, which give life, and sometimes death, to the story of a nation. Either way, he intends to monitor the process, doing what he can in his small way to save the Great American Experiment. He has written extensively on both linguistics and history, publishing in both English and Japanese.
