Walker delivers a powerful diagnosis of the spiritual, educational, and philosophical decay hollowing out the modern West. From declining literacy and screen addiction to the abandonment of classical education and moral formation, this book exposes how a culture rich in stories, meaning, and virtue has been replaced by distraction, manipulation, and intellectual shallowness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing from history, philosophy, theology, and the rapidly growing classical-Christian education movement, Walker traces the roots of the crisis from the rejection of objective truth to the dominance of materialism, corporate technocracy, and algorithm-driven culture.
