As Max Parrella states, "America runs on emotions and preconceived notions." This book will educate you on how our psychology affects society as a whole.

This powerful book will help you:

• Learn the sociological causes of the isolationist movements that are gripping the globe.
• Understand the drastic impacts of fear on entire populations.
• Discover the importance of maintaining Collective Societal Wisdom among a society's entire population.
• Build a strong awareness of how the lack of interconnectivity can significantly reduce a society's Collective Societal Wisdom.
• Find encouragement, motivation, and hope that the world can in fact become a safer, stronger, more connected home for humanity.

In his long awaited book, Collective Societal Wisdom, Max Parrella illustrates the intertwining of the actions of macro-level societal systems with psychological theory of the mind, providing a stunning image of how entire populations can be influenced by the invisible forces around them to act in ways which may seem irrational, or even unbelievable.

Throughout the book, Parrella uses the successes and mistakes of the Roman Empire as a learning tool to suggest solutions for many large-scale issues in the United States today, including everything from the regression of language skills from complex language to pictures, to the tremendous levels of misinformation in the so-called Age of Information, to extremely complex issues such as the US/Mexico border crisis.

Parrella further explains how certain subtle changes in thinking within the Roman population led to significant mistakes, eventually leading to the collapse of the Western world into the Dark Ages. By using the Roman era as a model, Parrella describes how the current world is teetering on the brink of either the next Dark Ages or a new era of interconnectivity and openness that has never been seen before. Because the world is at such a crucial stage in its life cycle, Parrella reveals the steps we must take, and the urgency with which we must take them, to ensure continued societal progress, and prevent a global regression similar to the Dark Ages of old.

His background in ancient civilizations, political analysis, and social work gives Max Parrella a unique perspective on the various political and social events that have occurred on a global scale, many of which have caused distress to numerous communities. Collective Societal Wisdom aims at educating through narrative, rather than research studies, on how collective mindsets can drastically impact entire societies and what can be done to help maintain global advancement despite the many obstacles that may arise.
