Five Stories That Can Change the World
Eco-philosopherJoanna Macy, Ph.D., is one of the best known
spiritual activists. She is a scholar of Buddhism, general systems
theory, and deep ecology. A respected voice in movements for peace,
justice, and ecology, she interweaves her scholarship with four
decades of activism. Her wide-ranging work addresses psychological
and spiritual issues of the nuclear age, the cultivation of
ecological awareness, and the fruitful resonance between Buddhist
thought and contemporary science. Her group methods have been
adopted and adapted widely in classrooms, churches, and grassroots
organizing. Her work helps people transform despair and apathy, in
the face of overwhelming social and ecological crises, into
constructive, collaborative action. The author of 10 previous books
Macy travels widely giving lectures, workshops, and trainings in
the Americas, Europe, Asia, and Australia. She lives in Berkeley,
California.
