Our Children, Our Future Defining the Stakes in a Battle We Must Not Lose

"Never before in history," writes author E. Timothy Burns, "has there been such need to act with intelligence, sensitivity, & force, for never in history have we faced such compelling threats to our children &, therefore, to our collective future. His new book, OUR CHILDREN, OUR FUTURE, consists of seven easily understood parts: 1) Bonding & Role Modeling--the foundations for all higher mental functions--are described as they affect children's central nervous system. 2) The Dominant Force in the lives of children from two through six is detailed as Burns presents "The Cognitive Brain", portraying the Limbic System, or ancient mammalian brain. 3) Thinking & Problem Solving are examined in "The Cognitive Brain," about the neocortex, center for thinking, problem solving, & delicate motor responses. 4) Daydreaming is analyzed in "The Perceptual Brain," about the ability to make moral & ethical judgments. 5) Threats to "Ethical Development" are discussed in "Our Lobotomized Youth," covering educational, electronic, & chemical forces in today's society that can--& do--lobotomize our young people. 6) Creation of Opportunities for Success is treated in the last section, "The Challenge of Joining Mind with Heart & Spirit," characterizing Society's desperate requirement to heal itself-& create improved opportunities for the young.Burns, E.
