Pulse between society and life

Society and life are expressions of the human environment, encompassing its history, present, and future. They are human life itself, with its joys and sorrows; they are the morals, values, customs, and behaviors by which we live; they are civilization and hope; they are the future, knowledge, work, and prosperity; they are beliefs, religions, and doctrines; they are our entire earthly life from birth to death, indeed, they are the very earth that will contain us on the day of our death, until the Day of Judgment, God willing! How beautiful our lives are, and how great our societies are, where we must experience love, friendship, spouses, children, ethics, food, drink, morale, and governing authority. We must live and thrive, we must coexist and rise above disagreements, for life and society depend on diverse opinions, and this worldly life is but fleeting vanity! In these pages, within the confines of this book, we enjoy a satirical and critical exploration of the Egyptian press over the past four years. Yes, it is a journey through a random sample of these daily newspapers, but it reveals the extent to which the press writes, both seriously and humorously, and what journalists write about life, society, politics, economics, and media-all so that it is not merely journalistic drivel, empty words.
