Right Relationship: Building a Whole Earth Economy

Peter G. Brown and Geoffrey Garver. Right Relationship: Building a Whole Earth Economy.
Paperback: 216 pp. Bernett-Koehler, 2009.

"Our current economic system -- which assumes endless growth and limitless potential wealth -- flies in the face of the fact that the earth's life-support capacity is finite. ... Peter G. Brown and Geoffrey Garver use the core Quaker principle of "right relationship" -- respecting the integrity, resilience, and beauty of human and natural communities -- as the foundation for a new economic model. ... They propose new answers that combine an acute awareness of ecological limits with a fundamental focus on fairness and a concern with the spiritual, as well as material, well-being of the human race. And they outline what each of us can do to enable life's commonwealth." -- Back cover
