Some readers may be troubled by the ways in which the essays threaten and/or subvert efforts to control and/or dominate people who threaten the integrity of legitimate communities and their police.

There are people involved in evil relationships which need to be mitigated to minimize the threats to the integrities of our communities and their members. Such mitigation depends upon clearly understanding the nature of the threat of evil relationships; i.e., relationships characterized by: coercion, violence, dishonesty, deception, pretentiousness, arrogance, self-righteousness, imbalance and the lack of mutuality.

Many of the essays have been written to clarify the essential characteristics of evil relationships; to help people who are entrapped in evil relationships. For many people such clarifications are likely to be threatening --- because such clarifications suggest that there are radically new and different ways of mitigating evil relationships. Domination, control, coercion, violence, dishonesty, deception, pretentiousness, arrogance, and self-righteousness are not good team-mates in humane efforts to mitigate evil relationships.
