I always benefit from reading his work, and this was a deeply moving experience for me. In this book, Howard's wisdom and understanding of a balanced and rational life call softly and persuasively to the reader from every page. With every chapter dawns a greater and more complete vision of a world we would be proud to pass on to our children.

Howard's book is a revolutionary act—in it he makes clear the ties between personal values, moral traditions and the looming environmental crisis in an intelligent, accessible, personal and thought provoking manner. Rather than assault the reader with pessimism and doom, Howard provides the reader with hope and a blueprint for a healthy future.
