Summary:
"This title aims to both point out the unhealthy chasm of polarization in the nation and also describe with empathy why people of good will can hold such divergent beliefs and values while still ascribing to the motto on our currency: "e pluribus unum/from many one." It describes and appreciates the dearly held values of the left and the right, liberals and conservatives, and help each side realize that the progress of the nation toward "a more perfect union" only happens when we tack to the center"-- Provided by publisher.
