Richard B. Norgaard, ecological economist and professor emeritus of energy and resources, University of California, Berkeley

With morally muscled reason and touchingly brutal facts, Cynthia Moe-Lobeda lifts us to the joy of working together for personal, systemic, and consciousness transformation. Join others in, or strengthen your ties with, the liberating commitments of caring people (to build a moral economy) or (to replace our socially and environmentally destructive economy). With brutal facts, hope rousing stories, graceful reason, and moral imagination awakening, Dr. Moe-Lobeda gently lifts us above despair, denial, and do-nothing acceptance of our exploitive economy. Engage, or more deeply engage, in liberating commitment to the many social movements transforming lives, the system, and our consciousness of the sacred. We can live in mutually supportive harmony with each other and all life.
