Portraits - Power and Glory Vis-a-Vis Form and Contentment

In this compilation of over thirty biographical sketches, including Hitler, Stalin, de Gaulle, Ben-Gurian, de Valera, Franco, Dali, Aldous Huxley, James Joyce, Norman Mailer, Ezra Pound, Carl Jung, and W.B Yeats, Mr O'Loughlin has attempted to view his subjects through the ideological prism of Social Transcendentalism, in order to see how they are reflected. The results, at times, are quite surprising, if, understandably, also in some instances only too perversely predictable! The cover shows a photographic self-portrait taken by John O'Loughlin several years ago.
