(Philosophical-sociological Essay)
The problems of love, family and state are topics that are widely discussed both in the West and in Russia. This essay, however, differs from all previous research work in that Alex Battler elevated the well-known words “love,” “family” and “marriage” to the level of concepts. This enabled the author to correlate them to the conception of force and progress he had substantiated in the book Dialectics of Force: Ontóbia, and ultimately to define the regular connection between the destruction of marriage and the collapse of state within the context of the law of entropy growth, or “the law of death.” ...
(Chinese Version)
The book dispels the common myth about Russia as a superpower. Alex Battler draws readers' attention to numerous historic themes that put the country's potential in direct conflict with its stated foreign policy objectives.
The authors views are entirely his own and are, on most occasions, different from those commonly accepted.

The book 21st Century: The World without Russia in 2005 was published by Shanghai People’s Publishing House. I would like to thank the translator of this book Dr. Zhang Jian Rong from Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences and suggest to those who knows Chinese to read his review published in the Chinese paper (Huan Qiu shibao/ The Global Times).
In this book for the first time in world scientific literature the category of force is presented as an attribute of matter along with motion, space and time. This enabled the author to develop a different approach to solving the problem of the Big Bang, to give a new definition of the border between life and the inorganic world, and to offer his own interpretation in the disputes around the body-and-mind problem. The category of ontological force, formulated by the author, enabled him to reach a new definition of the concept of progress, which creates a methodological basis for fruitful research use in the fields of social sciences and international relations.
This book is intended for instructors and students of philosophy and natural sciences, as well as for all those interested in the problems of the Universe, life and Man.
