The work of a lifetime of profound and richly varied boundary-crossing experiences combined with broad and insightful intellectual inquiry, it addresses one of the most critical needs of our time in accessible, almost poetic prose. No words of mine can do it justice.”—David C. Korten, board chair ofYES!magazine and author ofThe Great Turning,Agenda for a New Economy, andWhen Corporations Rule the World“I’ve studied and worked with Bushman communities for twenty-five years, and only now after reading this book do I understand just how important their lessons are for humanity today....This is an eloquent, inspirational work.”—Craig Foster, ethnographic and wildlife documentary filmmaker and director ofThe Great Dance: A Hunter’s Story“A unique contribution to rethinking our collective story, from our common past out of Africa toward a shared future on our endangered planet. To sink into this perspective is to see with fresh insight how we truly belong here — such a gift!”—Mary Evelyn Tucker, cofounder and codirector of the Forum on Religion and Ecology at Yale University
