THE AFTERWORD | The Wise Life - Week 1
Bad, violent and anti-social behavior is on an alarming trend upward in the US. Everything from FAA investigations into unruly passenger behavior, car accidents caused by aggressive driving, to violence against nurses in hospitals.

Like the food pyramid of old that outlines healthy nutrition (6-8 servings of vegetables, people!) and cautions against unhealthy food choices - Jay and David examine McCracken's book to find the "wise" sources we ought be consuming, and what the modern equivalence to eating only M&Ms and oreos is.
