A collection of short stories aimed at bringing out the best of human values. Values cannot be changed through preaching or slogans. They can perhaps be changed through examples, precipitous events and personal experience. In this book, Hadi offers the examples of good qualities in people we admire and respect. The Way of The World contains 149 easy-to-read stories that Hadi has assembled through recollections of what he heard, read, observed and experienced throughout his life. Episodic and parable-like, the stories are meant to deliver the message that life is to be lived, savoured and enjoyed. An objective of the book is to get us to reflect on the wisdom of the ages, the good behaviour of contemporary heroes, and the joy of simple living. There is a story for everyone, young or old. In fact, the stories narrate the universality of man. Lively illustrations accompany some of the stories.
