The Sacred Balance
by David T. Suzuki
Every day we are bombarded with the message that the bottom line for society and governments must be the economy and global competitiveness. But in this seminal work, David Suzuki argues that the real bottom line, and our true challenge today, is not debts and deficits but the need to find a way to live full and meaningful lives without destroying the Earth's biosphere, which supports all life. Suzuki explores the physical, social, and spiritual needs that should form the basis of any society which aspires to a sustainable future and a high quality of life for its citizens. "Those fundamental requirements are rooted in the Earth and its life-support systems. They are worthy of reverence and respect; that is, they are sacred."
Kinship to Mastery
by Stephen R. Kellert
Explores the notion of biophilia--the idea that humans, having evolved with the rest of creation, possess a biologically based attraction to nature.
