Description: "What impels a Mohandas Gandhi or a Martin Luther King Jr. into a life dedicated to social justice? In this account, Christian ethicist Curtiss DeYoung profiles three of the most dynamic and influential religious activists of the last century: Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Malcolm X, and Aung San Suu Kyi, and shows how a fiery core of mystic faith drove them beyond conventional boundaries and empowered their lives and deeds."--Jacket.
