Toward a Philosophy of Nonviolent Living
By John Nolt, Ph.D.
How
does one reconcile having strong environmental
values with living one's everyday life? John Nolt,
an environmental ethics professor at the University
of Tennessee, shares with us in depth in this book
his thoughtful analysis of the choices he makes
every day, from supporting local farmers to riding a bicycle as his primary
mode of transportation to the vagaries of suburban lawn care. Nolt makes
a persuasive case for resisting the pull of materialism for a more spiritually
rewarding life of simplicity. His writing is clear and evocative with
universal appeal. Those interested in living their lives according to
their consciences by joining their philosophy with their actions will
find this book particularly appealing ... a guide for living fully and
wholistically.

NOW THAT YOU KNOW
ISBN 0-9644659-7-3
A Journey Toward Earth Literacy
by McGregor Smith, Jr., Ph.D.
McGregor
Smith reflects on how the universe uses grandparents
and grandchildren as natural teachers. After studying the course of
Earth's evolutionary history, and how this 100-million-year chain of
events has culminated in our
current ecological predicament, Smith is challenged by a young boy's
question: Now that you know, what are you going to do about it? Personal
and insightful, this book appeals to a very broad audience. Short,
informative chapters make this an ideal text for small study groups
interested in environmental responsibility.
