Critics Review

“Professor Nagler is a trusted interpreter of my grandfather’s life and message. In this book he reveals the unique importance of Gandhiji’s great discovery of nonviolence for our time and brings out its indispensable role in the shift to a sustainable civilization on which our life, and possibly all life on earth, now depends.”
—Rajmohan Gandhi, Professor, University of Illinois

“Coming from his deep understanding of Gandhian nonviolence, he identifies missing elements in our development of a ‘new story,’ especially where we fail to focus on our inner being (‘third harmony’) and find there the precious resource of metta (nonviolence) that the Buddha and all the great teachers tell us lies within. May every lover of life read and be empowered by this passionate and compelling book.”
Joanna Macy, author of Coming Back to Life

“A powerful ‘new story’ rooted in wholeness is being called forth! Michael Nagler’s important and groundbreaking new book is an insightful exploration and guide for the social healing and transformational possibilities urgently needed for these times!”
Belvie Rooks, coauthor of I Give You the Springtime of My Blushing Heart
