Do we really have civilization, and if not, when will it arrive? When Will Civilization Arrive? explores a political history from which we have not learned. Through his writings, Robert E. Barr poignantly points out mistakes that civilization has and is making that need correction for earth's and humanity's longevity. Moreover, it boldly calls out countries with dictators and/or leaders who seek nothing but control, power, wealth, expansionism, and the power of nuclear weapons, and reveals a hard reality: For now, true civilization may be unattainable for humanity.
