Book excerpt: Many people believe that the evil in the world is caused by external forces, while others use the same argument to say that this proves that there is no God or evil, but simply human nature and that evil is a part of it. But in Unacknowledged: The Hidden Impact of Negative Emotions on Mental Health, you will understand that both options are irrelevant because the true source of evil can be identified and explained. You will also realize that evil is a choice that many people make, and that if more people were educated and aware of this information, evil wouldn't exist. Although acts of cruelty can be found throughout human history, they persist largely due to the rationalization and general acceptance of such acts by the masses and their unwillingness to choose other paths. As a result, depression and loneliness have also become part of our lives, and not many people believe that they can naturally overcome these emotional states. Unacknowledged aims to replace the confusion that still shadows the world with clarity, giving multiple examples of what makes a person evil and how to stop such individuals, but also teaching how we can find our own peace of mind in such a world. It challenges the views of many religions in a way that is more genuine, honest, scientific, and essentially practical. It also gives you hope for a world with more justice, forgiveness, harmony, and dignity.
