Consider all of this a strange mixture of epic failure and eerie success in a world that -- thank you, Donald Trump (but by no means just him) -- is becoming more deadly by the month.

Whether in the short or long run, we, our children, and our grandchildren stand an all-too-unreasonable chance of living on a failed planet.

"Bottom-Up is a direct and logical look at how we live our lives, conduct our business, manage our societies, and, most importantly, communicate with each other. Author Rob Kall explains it all in plain English. But don't let the readability of this book fool you into thinking that it's not important. Kall cuts to the heart of the most critical issues in communication today. This book is as important as game theory. And people will take notice."

John Kiriakou, former CIA officer and author of The Reluctant Spy and Doing Time Like a Spy
