Think of air shows, nudist beaches, exotic dancers, and the folly of some crusaders of wanting to save the world single handed. The story is staged in Vancouver, Canada, during the Cold War era. Winning Without Victory projects the Westphalian Principle of an active peace, the win/win principle that leaves no one vanquished but uplifts the world, where the advantage of the other is the keystone for an enriched civilization. This humanist foundation is a fit platform for meeting the Ice Age challenge, the most severe challenge in the entire history of humanity. The book presented here (Book 1) is a part of a series of selected chapters from my novel, Winning Without Victory. The multi-part series is created to highlight that Active Peace, though it is achievable, is not simplistic, but has many facets, with each being profound.
