This 778 page handful and mindful work of keen observations, considered analysis and predictive insights is delivered with a healthy sense of humor. With chapter titles like: From Here to Uncertainty, Tinkle-down Perversion, and The White Raven, the reader is briskly spirited through political sense and nonsense to a healthy, common sense look at future possibilities.

The provocative cover image, a Siamese Crocodile, graphically depicts the complicated essence of the book. At their best the crocs are symbiotically related. At their worst they can each render the other an ineffectual stale mate. Welcome to the obstinacy of warring politics as it cripples our patriotism, our economy and our lives.

Purpose Beyond 2012 provides a comprehensive overview which sharpens our perspective of Skinner box politics. Reichertz outlines a common sense, realistic approach to collaboratively attain a mutually desirable resolution to our direction-hungry future.
