Overview

What's wrong with us? is the result of two years of exhaustive research, three years of writing, rewriting and editing. And, as the title suggests, What is Wrong with Us? presents a study of the complexities of human/animal nature and interaction. Paying special attention to the emotions that drive certain types of behavior. The volume combines personal observation with research. It also draws upon an understanding of certain political, philosophical, and sociological principles, using a generally straightforward approach in an effort to create a thorough yet accessible overview. The manuscript contains 8 chapters: Lies, Jealousy and Envy, Judgment, Right and Wrong, Relationships, Sex, Fear and Love. What if a manuscript that explains scientifically why we lie to others and they to us landed on your porch? How about a work that shows the true faces of jealousy and envy? How would words revealing why and how people judge be received? How much would a text that not only questions and challenges our sense of right and wrong, but also proves that they do not exist be worth? What if someone wrote a manual that addressed understanding every relationship whether at work, home or school? What if a work not only examines why we seek sexual pleasure, but also details how to achieve sexual satisfaction. What if a book shows how to control fear through rational thought? What if someone has a road map on how to love unconditionally? What s Wrong with Us? is one stop shopping and does all the above. The manuscript is for those who enjoy provocative writing, sexual honesty and shared personal experiences delivered through often humorous anecdotes. The work also addresses a multitude of current events (homosexuality, race, drugs, relationships, immigration, sex, Iraq, politics, etc). The reader will learn a great deal about human motives as well as human/animal behavior, and himself or herself, if they are not careful. The manuscript is humanity's mirror. This tell-all makes the reader laugh, cry, and shake their heads at the same time.

About the Author

Ronald Crawford's resume reads like a novel. 43-years-old with no children and never married. From the 'Hood" of Washington, D.C., no high school diploma or GED, but he has a B.S. in Physics. Mensa Member who used to be a gangbanger. 9 1/2 years as a naval aviator (gulf war veteran): terrible officer, good instructor pilot, better admiral's aide. Rewrote the helicopter flight training manual. Corporate manager, worldwide total product support engineer, expatriate, entrepreneur, producer, wordsmith and knowledge seeker... The author has seen five of the seven continents and have had many relationships with people from around the globe. The writer accidentally started writing a book in 2003. While living abroad, he finally had time and a location with no white noise to sit still in a place for the first time since he was a child. It began when he earnestly began to keep another diary. Soon the desire to communicate beyond myself took on a life of its own. Conversations create random ideas that form thoughts, which in turn give birth to paragraphs, which eventually become structured chapters. Crawford has delivered newspapers in the AM and stood foreman over classrooms where learning is secondary, all for a dream. He has also lost friends and lovers for the sake of the written word.
