Most of us our overwhelmed, it is just too many things at once, yes we would like that crisis supersized. It is difficult to keep perspecitve, to look past our own front door.

The Best Book On Social Reform I Have Ever Read

Lots of people offer grand solutions to the growing crises in our nation; witness the speeches of the current presidential candidates. Yet nobody seems to have come up with real, practical proactive ways in which we can find our way to these solutions. Things we, as citizens, can actually do, to attack the problems of homelessness, unemployment, obesity, poverty, waste, and a general malaise of conscience and confidence. This is a book about overcoming apathy: it's about empowering each one of us to take a hard look at the root causes of issues that trouble people of conscience every day in America, and instead of pontificating, Carlin writes in a compelling, personal, relatable and non-partisan manner about the philosophy of personal action and responsibility and the joy of proactively taking steps to correct pain and lack in our individual communities. It's pretty clear that many people in the U.S. have lost this joy and this book truly galvanizes us all to think of what we can do to stand up for what's right and ACT on it. I love it - I recommended it to all of my friends and it's release is incredibly timely in today's environment. Also, Carlin is well-known speaker, writer and editor in the Los Angeles area with two sons serving in the Unites States military. He knows what he is talking about, and it shows. Exceptional.

inspiring

Mr. Carlin has written a modern approach to an issue as old as the scriptures: peace. What kind of peace do we seek? Are we waiting for governments, foundations, organized religions to inspire peace? Or should we be more practical and let us citizens start the drive that will conduct us to a more stable and harmonious society. By demonstrating his own personal experience, the author leads us to believe that peace is achievable among all nations and societies. This book is a must read for anyone concerned about the future of man and how to end war.
