This book in brief explains a new theory on the Political Spectrum, where focus is put on the limbic ideological dimension and as to how it serves as an alternative to the left, right and centre dimensions of the political spectrum through the de facto ideology based emotional framework and the de jure global legal order system based framework. The Whole Brain Approach which studies the brain and the way it runs through its four major systems [Right, Left, Cerebral (Centre) & Limbic] is compared with the major dimensions of the political spectrum with the help of which the limbic is unraveled with the belief that this would eventually lead to the formation of the New Political Spectrum.
