As with other titles by John O'Loughlin, this particular work tends to utilize both aphorisms discursively and maxims sequentially in a kind of compromise between contrasting approaches to his philosophical writing, the one more literary and the other more technical, with some material of an autobiographical nature included for good measure, as also in an attempt to clarify his situation as a self-styled intellectual whose 'journey' to such an advanced realization of his thinking did not happen overnight or without considerable effort both personally and in relation to whatever obstacles domestic and/or environmental circumstances may have thrown in his/its way, not least in respect of this book's understanding of Western civilization and its relationships to both decadence and degeneration, as discussed at some length in the text.
