Virtuous Circles Quartet

This quartet of aphoristic philosophy continues the author''s quest for Social Transcendentalist perfection through texts as diverse as the aforementioned ''The Virtuous Circles'', which opens the volume, ''The Struggle for Ultimate Freedom'', ''Apotheosis of the Gnosis'' (no hype!) and ''Eschatology or Scatology'', the latter of which would suggest a choice between Heaven and, in effect, Hell, though Mr O''Loughlin has definite ideological alternatives in mind which approximate, in their axially opposite ways, to such a dichotomy.
