Summary: This book is for now
Review: We hear daily about conflict, competition, stress, distrust and fear between nations, in schools, toward government, in business and, if we're honest, even in our religious institutions. There is no great hero on the horizon to fix any of this for us; it's up to us, one by one.
This book is a step-by-step, user friendly manual for changing our own minds in such a way as to become a natural presence of peace in any environment we enter. When enough of us learn this, it will show up in human interaction on every level.
