description: This book is about a momentous choice that faces each of us today, between what is life-giving and what is destructive. This choice is between two cultures, each of which is bidding for our allegiance and each of which proposes its own distinctive vision, value system, and lifestyle. One culture centers on the outer world of material things, on what we have and what we do. It is the dominant culture and, since it has little time for the inner spiritual world, it leaves a spiritual vacuum at the heart of society. The priority of the alternative culture is to give to our relationship with God, with our inner self, with others and with creation, the time, energy and resources they deserve. Since the first of these cultures is so firmly established, to choose the second one will involve us in a revolution.
