About the Book

The expert authors brought together in this volume collectively deploy the essential teachings of nonviolence across a spectrum of contemporary issues. From considering the principles of the French Revolution and encouraging peace through natural resource management to exploring multiculturism and in teaching peace in the elementary classroom, this work is broad in scope yet detailed in its approach to the fundamental principles of nonviolence.

About the Author :

Review :
The early years of the twenty-first century have rekindled public and scholarly dialogue as to the relevance of the efficacy and power of nonviolence. This new volume, featuring a modern-day who’s who of nonviolent thinkers, brings fresh new perspectives to the urgency and practicality of alternative recourses to violent conflict. - Anthony Jenkins, Vice President for Academic Affairs, National Peace Academy ""The most vital and promising approach to peace. It should find a place on any and all lists of essential works in the field."" - Betty A. Reardon, Founding Director Emerita, International Institute on Peace Education ""I hope that these essays reach educators and activists in a wide range of disciplines. By emphasizing mutual aid and empathy as key factors of human social development, contributors to this book help equip us to nonviolently resist corporate greed and war."" - Kathy Kelly, Co-Coordinator, Voices for Creative Nonviolence
