Abstract: | A free person is a whole person. A whole person cares about the freedom and potential for wholeness of others. This connection between personal and global integrity forms the very basis of this book. The design of the book is circular. It moves from the moral self, through a world crying with needs, and back to the question of what one person/one community can do. Yet we hope that the tension between personal and global integrity is present through out the chapters and that it infuses energy into every discussion. |
