If Only We Knew

<p><em>If Only We Knew</em> illustrates why and how a group of ultra-wealthy Americans-the elite class-have been able to leverage their influence over the media and political spheres to intentionally spread false ideas among the public. This book explains how the widespread acceptance of these false ideas leads to the creation and amplification of risks posed by social problems.</p><p><br></p><p>Why would the elite intentionally accentuate the risks of social problems? In <em>If Only We Knew</em> Peter S. Baron answers this question by demonstrating that while this creation and amplification of the risks posed by social problems endangers and exploits the public it deliberately serves the socioeconomic interests of the elite.</p><p><br></p><p>The survival of the elite class wholly depends on the existence of widespread ignorance. Illuminating the malicious intentions of the elite is the first step to reversing ignorance and eliminating risks. To create a society in which all can thrive Baron calls for a national commitment to the values of forgiveness compassion long-term infinite-thinking and selflessness.<em> If Only We Knew</em>offers a refreshingly bold framework within which we can understand and solve the problems facing society in the 21st century.</p><p><br></p><p>PRAISE FOR </p><p><em>IF ONLY WE KNEW</em></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>While the issues he addresses in </span><em style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>If Only We Knew</em><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)> are not new Baron's voice is and remarkably it's a voice that's 'just' twenty years old as the book is released.</span><span style=color: rgba(34 34 34 1)>       </span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>-         </span><span style=color: rgba(34 34 34 1)>Reggie Marra cofounder Fully Human at Work and author </span><em style=color: rgba(34 34 34 1)>Enough with the Talking Points</em><span style=color: rgba(34 34 34 1)> </span><em style=color: rgba(34 34 34 1)>Killing America</em><span style=color: rgba(34 34 34 1)> and (forthcoming in 2022) </span><em style=color: rgba(34 34 34 1)>Healing America's Narratives: Owning and Integrating Our National Shadow</em><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)> </span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)> </span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Peter Baron's work provides hope that a better way is possible if we think more deeply about our own relationship to information language and knowledge. </span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>-         Dr. Tiffany Wilgar Professor of Rhetoric and Composition Fairfield University </span></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Baron's well written exploration for what is just leaves us all thinking about one critically significant question: have we all been manipulated to contribute to society's flaws or inspired to reengineer old standards and modernize systems that give rise to humanity and individual capacity in today's age of personalization?</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>-         Glenn Llopis President of GLLG Founder of the Age of Personalization Movement and Leadership Strategy Contributor to Forbes</span></p><p><br></p><h2 class=ql-align-center><br></h2>
