Moments of clarity in this book -- food for thought, March 7, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: A Willful Volunteer: Examining Conscience in an Unconscious World (Paperback)
The confusion wrought by what happened to our national has to me grown, rather than dwindled. Initially, I read 9/11, by Noam Chomsky, which was good. When I ordered that book, this book (A Willful Volunteer) was also recommended, and I was able to check out some of the text. I decided that I would give it a try, to help alleviate a little of that confusion.
The author gives us some facts and some personal stories to think about. How do we respond to such ruthless acts? Do we turn the other cheek? Or is there some better way to influence the world positively?
The only shortcoming of this book is its brevity and that it is slightly disorganized. Overall, though, I recommend the book as food for thought. Insightful narratives and streams of consciousness.
