From the Back Cover
A passionate and wide-ranging book that demonstrates the elegance of simplicity . . . It is a manifesto for the only kind of future that promises sanity and the possibility of contentment. Bread and wine for the spirit. Sam Keen, author of Fire in the Belly.
A copy of this book in every American household could change the course of history. . . .Voluntary Simplicity shows that what this nation needs is not so much a change of policy as a change of mind, and that individual citizens, acting on their own, can do more to solve our crisis than can any national administration. George Leonard, author of The Transformation
