From the book publicity:


Have you ever wondered how democracy came to fruition? How it differs from all the brands of tyranny? In today’s ever turbulent and changing political climate, understanding democracy’s evolution and the ways it has been beneficial to individuals compared to other forms of government is essential. In an epic new series ofhistorical vignettes and political commentary, Nautilus and Foreword award-winning author Richard C. Lyons, expertly retells the histories of democracy and deconstructs humanity’s living democratic masterpieces in his new book, “The DNA of Democracy” (May 14, 2019). In this historical and telling guide, Lyons chronicles democratic societies, tracing their beginnings back to rebellions against tyranny, from Athens to Rome to England and America. Through true historical narratives, the book also relates the growth of democracy and how it differs from tyranny. By the end of “The DNA of Democracy,” readers will better understand the blueprint necessary for successful democratic government, how American democracy was uniquely founded and what comprises the DNA of our modern-day democracy.
