Abstract
Culture provides us with a set of assumptions and values about ourselves, and the world around us. Culture influences how we think and feel and what we do. Each of us carries these assumptions and values in our mind and they serve as the context within which we relate to ourselves, to others, and to the physical and spiritual environment. Most people are unaware of their cultural assumptions and assume that their own cultural assumptions about the nature of humanity and the world are right and natural. While culture is to be appreciated and celebrated, it also can be somewhat hypnotic, with the result of internalizing what may be unquestioned, unexamined, self-limiting, and addictive cultural scripts.

Publisher Statement
As a human species, derived from fear, one of the ways we appear to be "stuck" relates to how we addictively view one another through the lens of what the author calls "addictive cultural scripts." The author seeks to shed light on this phenomenon as a hope that we can learn how to heal and move beyond our self-constructed, internalized cultural scripts that are not serving ourselves and others well.
