Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These brief essays, "Paradoxes of the Drug War," and "Paradoxes of the Holocaust," are a collection of ideas and arguments for all civilizations. Each is part of a larger work that I shall seek to complete in the future. But I have been in bad health, and there may be editing mistakes in the text. Please excuse, then, any editing mistakes, irregularities, or limited inconsistencies in the text. Note: When I use the concept of paradox in this book, I am simply using the familiar or everyday concept of paradox instead of more technical treatments of the concept given by academic philosophers.
