商品簡介
Howard (psychology, U. of Notre Dame) presents a multidisciplinary analysis of how our current beliefs, desires, political and economic systems, and moral traditions create our future both as individuals and as a society. He explores the ways that words and ideas can produce cultural evolution leading to more earth-friendly human natures, discusses structural changes in our individual lives and society as a whole to reduce humanity's negative impact on the planet, and then considers insights from three moral traditions Christianity, Buddhism, and Hinduism which promote an earth-supportive philosophy of life. Suitable for use in college courses in a range of disciplines, this text would also be accessible to general readers. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
