Sinopsis

"Life has no meaning except what we assign to it."

In An Infinity of Interpretations, Dr. Ronald E. Kimmons explores the above simple thesis and details how he has utilized it as a way to handle ideas and social phenomena from a variety of sources, ultimately providing others with a better understanding of life and its constant demands.

Dr. Kimmons proposes that most of what we want to accomplish in this lifetime is driven not by a quest for money, power, sex, glory, religion, or objective knowledge, but rather by our desire to understand, justify, and perpetuate our life. While including bits and pieces of his own life story along with social commentary, Dr. Kimmons addresses the origin of his thesis, compares Freud and White, and then delves deeply into the personalities and motives of both past and modern leaders as well as television personalities in an attempt to illustrate how individuals may enable themselves through completely different processes.

Is it really true that there are few, if any, absolutes in this world? Dr. Kimmons’ examination of a simple thesis encourages us to proceed carefully in this life lest we offend life itself.
