Coming Back To Life

Coming Back To Life

Coming Back To Life

Practices To Reconnect Our Lives, Our World

BY JOANNA MACY

Brief Description:
"Coming Back to Life" provides a much needed updated and expansion of her pioneering work "Despair and Personal Power in the Nuclear Age". At the interface between spiritual breakthrough and social action. "Coming Back to Life" is eloquent and compelling as well as being an inspiring and practical guide. The first third of the book discusses the angst of our era, and the pain, fear, guilt and inaction it has engendered. It then points forward to the way out of apathy to "the work that reconnects". The rest of the book offers both personal counsel and easy-to-use methods for working with groups in a number of ways to profoundly affect people's outlook and ability to act in the world.
