| Description: |
Intended for educated, general readers, this book shows us how to draw on the deepest wells of ethical power in ourselves and our value systems, both religious and secular, in order to promote greater, sustainable well-being for all. |
| Synopsis: |
'The world of the early twenty-first century is in deep moral crisis.' It is not difficult to imagine a respected leader such as the Dalai Lama or Nelson Mandela uttering these words. The news media and personal experiences prove them to be true, virtually every day. From grinding poverty to corrupt politicians, unscrupulous business people and organised criminal gangs, from sexual violence to armed robberies, war-mongers and thuggery in schools, who can doubt the grim warning of these words? Authored by a leading South African ethics consultant, writer and academic, this accessible book is intended for educated, general readers and shows us how to draw on the deepest wells of ethical power in ourselves and our value systems, both religious and secular, in order to promote greater, sustainable well-being for all. It maps out a potentially global ethic, providing practical resources of heart, mind and hands with which we can become citizens of conscience. |
