the Way of Humans: a Guide for Visitors to Earth
a Hypo-minimally Critical Review


This amply elaborated guide for visitors, merchants, and migrants to Earth projects an ethno-mental and socio-psychological emphasis pattern on the traditions, values, attitudes and deportment of homo sapiens. Structured in phases that severally treat almost all facets of Terran experience, the script illuminates the reader-audience with its perceptivity and truthfulness. Although it doesn't entirely avoid simplistic formulaic classification (and doesn’t seem at all troubled by it), the guide portrays the salutary, the unsound and the offbeat. It explicates the "why" behind human demeanor, etiquette, and conduct.
