Omschrijving

"There is no physical survival without social order, no social order without norms, no norms without culture, no culture without myth, no myth without dreams." This is one of the many sentences in this book that artfully manifest their messages in the way they are written. This book is a firework of elegance and love, the very ingredients that give dreams power. This book does more than inform us with brilliant arguments of why we need a large-scale Gestalt shift. It is a paradigm shifter itself. A fairer economy is plural, writes Richards, and the book manifests plurality in weaving wondrous and deeply touching webs from the caresses of belles lettres and the piercing force of philosophy and social science. This book calls for including everybody into "enchanting dreams, dignity, sisterhood and brotherhood," it calls for a "love sector" to be strengthened, and it does so lovingly. The "love sector" includes volunteering, gift-giving, sharing within families, sharing within clans, social entrepreneurship, parenting, grandparenting, and all the mutual aid of "reciprocity" that has been the norm in the history and prehistory of the human species.
— Evelin Lindner, Founding President of Human Dignity and Humiliation Studies

Howard Richards enjoyed a double career in the United States as a college professor and as a practicing attorney-at-law. In this book, he simultaneously contributes to belles lettres, to philosophy, and to social science.
