"This is having the same effect on me as all of the most influential works I have read: namely, that it feels like hearing what you already held in the core of your being articulated so consummately as to bring it into greater focus within your awareness." - Laird Bishop
"This book points out the common sense connections we have to nature in a beautiful and inspirational way." - Kindle user
Humanity is at a crossroads; we find ourselves at a fork in the path. One direction leads to ecological ruin and, quite possibly, the death of most life on Earth. The other road takes us towards a mature stewardship of the planet we live on and the creation of a renewably-powered, green civilization. So far, with remarkable consistency, humanity has chosen the destructive path. Why do we treat the living planet as something separate from us, that can be exploited and abused without consequence? Why do we consider it "success" when people turn against community towards self-aggrandizement and pathological greed? What makes us feel separate from nature? With penetrating insight, Mr. Caraway takes us on a journey to the root of these issues and offers practical solutions that can be implemented by anyone, anywhere.
This book is an equal blend of clear-headed reason, deep ecology, radical environmentalism, and nature-based spirituality and has answers for the head as well as the heart.
