Thomas Paine’s literary missiles in Common Sense were intended to incite an overthrow of despotism two centuries ago. Now Judah Freed’s Global Sense intends to incite a revolution within each one of us — a planetary evolution into real democracy and world peace.

Freed proposes a cultural/political Big Bang. The implosion of our global commonalities, he reasons, is giving birth worldwide to real self empowerment for every global citizen. The essay argues that we can best empower each other by empowering ourselves. Thinking like Paine, Freed offers here common sense reasons why it is pointless to debate between one despot or another when mindful self rule — purest democracy — is the only way to go.

Freed deftly wrestles with big ideas in a clear and eloquent voice, bringing historical lessons and passions down to earth where we can use them. The book will find a wide audience among change agents worldwide, estimated at 25 to 50 million “cultural creatives” in the U.S. alone. Many already know intuitively what needs to be done. Freed gives them the underpinnings, so they can act effectively.

Global Sense goes beyond upbeat idealism. The author recognizes that we are addicted to authority, craving security more than freedom. The breakthrough idea of this important book is that with personal growth and global thinking, we can have both safety and liberty.
