Renesch, J: Great Growing Up: Being Responsible for Humanity's Future

We all face an urgent collective choice: to opt for responsible adulthood over the largely adolescent ways we have been relating to one another and our planet Earth. The author demonstrates that it is not too late to create the future we all say we want for our children and our children's children -- a future that is environmentally sustainable, spiritually fulfilling and socially just. This book is about a change of thinking that supports a paradigm shift. Anyone willing to genuinely "grow up" can make this necessary choice. Ever-increasing numbers of individuals today are already seeking self-actualisation, growing in consciousness, and willing to take on leadership roles in bringing about the first conscious evolution of our species. The Great Growing Up invites the rest of us, who are concerned with humanity's future, to participate in this new thinking. The work of growing up is not primarily about political action -- it requires no government funding, no special training. The work is about a change of mind; we simply begin acting like mature adults. The author shows us how.
