Our World in Metaphors - Eze Ihenacho - Bog

Our world, like the human body, has different parts bringing their unique attributes together in one accord to function at its best." 'Our World In Metaphor Driven By the Truth' offers an in-depth and thought-provoking insight into the state of our world as a body, the dangers ahead and proposes solutions to help save our world by thoroughly overhauling, replacing and repairing all its damaged parts. An interesting metaphoric approach to trying to address these issues. The author poses this thought provoking question; "What would be the state of this body (our world) when those representing the hand and head decide to cripple the leg or delude themselves to think that they would benefit from weakening, confusing and subduing the leg? What would happen to the body when the leg fails in its duty not only to itself but, to the entire body and acts as inferior to the rest? Almost as if soliloquising, he answers the question pointing the reader deeper into realising and identifying the root cause of most of the issues that is ravaging our world. He said, "Both the inferior and superior in a body (a world) that cannot function without differences-a body that can only function based on respect for differences, complement, and collaboration-are guilty and responsible for all the evils of this world." He warns that, humanity has boxed itself into a tight and dangerous corner hence, it now looks in specific, wrong places for answers when, answers could be in the place least expected. Our World in Metaphors, is a thought provoking insight into our world today using metaphoric analogies to draw the reader into visualising the world we have now compared to the world we ought to have.
