Meditations on Money: Balancing Life and the Global Economy

Meditations on Money: Balancing Life and the Global Economy takes complex socio-political economic issues and synthesizes them into understandable concepts for day-to-day living. It will demonstrate how money and materialism relate to spiritual and ecological thought — from far left communism to far right capitalism — and will take you on an enlightened journey into humanity’s past 100 years and what’s on the horizon.
Meditations on Money weaves seemingly unrelated subjects into ten cohesive meditations that offer up advice and practical wisdom to help people balance their lives and communities in a chaotic world created by hyper-globalization.
Meditations on Money will enable you to move your thoughts, feelings and actions in new directions to produce higher levels of peace, joy and harmony for you, your friends and loved ones, and for the natural world we all need for our very existence.
“This book is the ideal text for university students, members of political parties, members of faith groups, and concerned citizens of all ages to read and discuss with friends — especially friends who might not share all the same values. It certainly forces the reader to answer “Why do I make the choices I do?”
— Penny Ericson, Dean and Professor Emeritus, Nursing, University of New Brunswick
“The book allows the reader to survey the multiple and complex intersections of history, spirituality, economics, politics, and philosophy.... The writing reflects a deeply personal engagement of matters that bear implications for all persons and groups concerned for present and future human well being in relation to nature.”
— George Feenstra, Minister, United Church of Canada, Steinbach, Manitoba
