“A simple and comprehensive vision of personal and planetary peace… Dreher’s examples work as meditations as well as road maps.”—Minneapolis Star Tribune

“Filled with anecdotes, questions to stimulate discussion, guidelines for change, exercises to promote positive peacefulness, with lots of Tao philosophy scattered throughout supporting each phase of [Dreher’s] plan.”—Santa Cruz Sentinel
