THE Ugly Guide to Things That Go by David Horvath

In this book, Somit and Peterson argue that humans are social primates with an innate tendency for hierarchical and authoritarian social and political structures, and that democracy requires very special enabling conditions before it can be supported by a state, conditions that require decades to evolve. As a result, attempts to export democracy through nation-building to states without these enabling conditions are doomed to failure.
David Horvath and Sun-Min Kim met and fell in love while studying at the Parsons School of Design in New York City. When Sun-Min moved back to Korea, the couple maintained a long-distance relationship by writing each other letters, on which David began drawing little ugly creatures. Sun-Min surprised David by sewing a plush version of one of his characters as a Christmas gift, and the Uglydolls were born! Several years and many dolls later, they are happily married and live in Los Angeles.
