Synopses & ReviewsBook News Annotation:Brown (environment, McGill U.) and Garver, a Montreal-based law
consultant and lecturer, offer people from all walks of life an
ethical guidance system based on right relation in order to address
the conflict between how people provide for themselves and the
integrity of Earth's ecological and social systems. They meld
scientific understanding, an ethical stance, and spiritual optimism
to discuss such matters as a flourishing commonwealth of life,
boundaries on consumption and waste, sharing, and new ways to play
fair.
