Publisher Comments:

Anita Roddick is not only one of the most successful businesswomen in the world, she's also one of the most effective campaigners for social justice of our time. In A Revolution in Kindness Roddick brings together a wide variety of voices speaking on the subject of kindness. Entertainers, philosophers, political prisoners, writers, fashion designers, and rock n' rollers are all represented, along with poignant thoughts from the invisible, homeless, and disenfranchised. This provocative book turns the preconception of kindness on its head. Its entries are deliberate, strong, assertive, and incite action to make the world a better place now. The contributions of Annie Lenox, Antonio Banderas, Lao Tzu, Kahlil Gibran, Fritjov Capra, Angelina Jolie, and many others are presented on individually designed pages with illustrations throughout. "This beautifully designed two-color gift book package is a call to action that will appeal to a wide range of people. "Anita Roddick is one of the most powerful and influential activists for social change. The international chain of stores that she founded, The Body Shop, is known for enacting many of her visionary beliefs of fair trade, environmental awareness, animal protection, and respect for human rights through programs including Trade Not Aid. "Most of the contributors are household names, including rock n rollers, movie stars, and spiritual leaders.
