This is John O’Loughlin’s first and, to-date, only attempt at writing a dictionary, in which the terminology follows alphabetically in chronological spelling order, and, needless to say, it’s in conjunction with the ideological philosophy of Social Transcendentalism that such a project was initially launched, with, it would appear, an acceptable degree of structural and thematic credibility to warrant such a seemingly portentous title – one, however, that must rank amongst the author’s best philosophical works for its exacting comprehensiveness and daring originality. The cover shows an upended CND-type emblem with masculine and feminine signs, as though to signify a ‘supercross’ appropriate, for the author, to Social Transcendentalism, and therefore conceived as the logical successor to the so-called ‘true cross’ of Roman Catholicism.
