In his 5th book, Dr. Dosemagen again demonstrates his considerable story telling capacity. This writing shifts in focus from entertaining short stories, (as in The Impossible) and novels (as in Prodigies and The Trigger) toward a how-to book offering a road map toward a new model of transformational leadership. Though Human Engineering is first and foremost a book about succeeding ethically, it does not stray far from Dosemagen's first love: biting, yet cogent social commentary.
Picking up where his Rediscovering the American Dream ends, this book expands the realm of social responsibility beyond the borders of the US, offering recognition of global, not just national aspirations and obligations. His recipe for a new and improved vision of humanity is more worldly and savvy than Pauline Christianity, and yet it is also more ethical and aware of duties of the means to ends than Marxism's new socialist man. In short, Dosemagen's model is a hybrid of teleological and deontological ethical theories melded into a workable leadership recipe. The book opens with Dosemagen's visions of the past and the future; he summons an Hegelian dialectic, beginning in a primordial setting where humankind lacks language and norms, and evolves through increasingly complex social and physical attributes. It culminates with the loftiest elements of modern American culture, which he sees as very good. Yet, the book articulates the many problems that remain unsolved. What does Dosemagen see as the next evolutionary step for humankind? For those who have attained the requisite morality and intellect, he claims the future calls for human engineering - an enlightened, humanistic equation that unites humanity and works to make life both fairer and easier to understand. The work climaxes with an explanation of his simple human engineering equation: Success = People X Effort + Cause. - Dr. Jonathan Lewis
