Publisher's Synopsis
As a human race, we all need food, clothing and shelter. These are all things that if worse came to worst, we could provide for ourselves. Of course, in order to have our vessels run smoothly, we need to be in good health, spiritually, mentally and phyiscally. To fine-tune these levels of health in the modern age, we would have to seek out professionals to provide us the medication and advice of better self-care to make ourselves last longer.

And they are all connected by that one thing that burns that makes our insides churn that thing from which we never learn... that thing from which we never turn. OUR HUMAN CONDITION is nothing short of the fantasy-fueled, libido-scorched bevy of sensuality that we all feel through our senseless and defenseless sexuality, no matter who we love, a thing that none of us can help, not that we want to. Nor, should we ever. Because we never...
