Book: Work And The Life Of The Spirit One of the far-reaching mysteries, work is not just a way of earning money--it is also one of the things that makes life worth living. Douglas Thorpe has assembled an array of fine writing from classical times to the present to explore the age-old meaning what work can offer. Contributors include William Blake, Lao-tzu, Studs Terkel, Walt Whitman, and others.
This anthology on "right livelihood" gathers writing on the nature of work and what makes it meaningful. It includes pieces from the Bible to well-respected contemporary writer/thinkers like Wendell Berry, Susan Griffin, and Thich Nhat Hanh. "This book... offers wide spectrum of wisdom connecting work with the great philosophical and spiritual issues". -- Thomas Moore
