Alex Canduci seeks to explode the many myths that surround the justification of wars, governments and organisations with the publication of the insightful, provocative and humorous Getting It Right… or Why The World Is So Monumentally Screwed: The Manipulation of History in conjunction with Lulu (www. lulu. com), the world’s fastest-growing provider of print-on-demand books.
Getting It Right… seeks to expose the outright manipulation of history that many individuals, governments and organisations undertake to justify their beliefs or actions. The book focuses on the ancient and medieval historical roots of many of today’s conflicts and beliefs. The book uses humor to expose and gently poke fun at these groups.
Alex Canduci wrote Getting It Right… because he was sick and tired of hearing and seeing people sprout distorted versions of history, just because they had heard it from some person in authority who had their own hidden agenda. He came to Lulu because he wanted to be in control of the publishing process and found Lulu’s print-on-demand tools to be fast, easy and, most importantly, free. Getting It Right… is available for purchase at www. lulu. com, in a marketplace filled with other unique and wonderful surprises.
“People’s lack of understanding about the real causes of modern conflicts and beliefs allows them to be easily manipulated by unscrupulous people who are pursuing their own agenda,” said Alex Canduci. “This book seeks to highlight some of these issues for people who have never read a history book, and are put off by the usual dry and dusty history book.”

ABOUT AUTHOR
Alexander Canduci (known to friends and well wishers as Voltan the Invincible) was born in 1968 in Sydney, Australia. He was a voracious reader of histories, reading the complete ‘Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire’ by Edward Gibbon, at the age of 13 – precocious brat. He is a graduate of Sydney University, with a degree in Applied Science, majoring in Health Information Management – which is absolutely no use whatsoever as an inspiration for writing. His passions are history and music; he played in some bands with absolutely no success. He plays drums, bass, guitar and a little keyboard. This is his first published book, and he hopes to live long enough to write a few more. He lives with his wife who doesn’t go to the gym and two children who are sending him bankrupt. His current whereabouts are unknown.
