About the Book

These reflections address the challenge of reaching for right relationship in all aspects of our lives. They invite us to consider how we show up - with ourselves, our communities and the world around us - in the light of Quaker values and practice. Does this choice of a way of being nourish community, for myself and others? Is a commitment to equality embedded in my position and clear in my intent? Does it have the essence of simplicity, cutting through the layers of complexity and clutter in modern life, and resting in that which is good and true? Is it life-affirming, tending to minimize violence and enhance the possibility of peaceful cooperation? Is it rooted in an understanding of my place in the larger community of life in all its forms, and my role in sustaining that web? Is it honorable: Does it have the ring of truth? An intention to keep reaching for right relationship holds the promise of finding solid ground in these tumultuous times and discerning paths that light a way ahead.

About the Author :
A student of economics since childhood, Pamela Haines has spent a lifetime gathering experience, knowledge and perspective to speak with authority on how economic theories and structures shape our lives and challenge our values. She has written pamphlets and magazine articles and lead workshops based on demystifying connections between economics and daily life, while challenging people to claim their power and act on their values. Pamela lives in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA.

Review :
I don't know anyone who wouldn't find this remarkable book helpful: deepening their awareness of how they live their lives, increasing their confidence, sense of power and choice, and love for themselves and others. Pamela Haines' voice is calm and reassuring, with a gentle humor. I noticed more light in the room where I was reading.--George Lakey, educator, author of Dancing with History: A Life for Peace and Justice Within the Judeo-Christian-Humanist tradition, Quakerism has uniquely centered the ethics of right relationship. Combined with the ethics of reverence for life, it lifts the veil on a flowering landscape of readaptation in which a social economy of adequate access to the means of life under the governance of "no more than needed" provides a bountiful and satisfying way of life. I am delighted to see Pamela Haines take up this theme in such a fresh and wide-ranging collection of essays. I commend them to the attention of all.--Keith Helmuth, author of Tracking Down Ecological Guidance
