The book refers to four strategic defeats that not only squeezed Hellenism
and marred the Greek psyche, psychology and our culture today. These
military defeats brought about the geographical, economic and political
decline of Hellenism, frustration, alienation, decay, the retreat, the
submissive mentality and ultimately enslavement as a nation. .... the
interpretation of historical events associated with the need for change and
exceeded both the political and the current situation of the country and
the social structures of worn political parties and the general state
apparatus dissolved, which as a result has the military weakening of the
country and the destruction of culture. The study of the book is a guide
for moral and national uplift of Hellenism. 472p. maps bibliography
