“This book invites us to imagine a world in which all people are treated with respect and dignity. A world where even the most downtrodden and debilitated can harbor and pursue a dream of a better life. Where no limits are placed on the individual potential.”
–from the Foreword by Stanley Witkin,
University of Vermont
