Made for Goodness: and Why This Makes All the Difference
by Desmond Tutu and Mpho Tutu
$15.99 Paperback

Over the years the same questions get asked of Desmond Tutu, the archbishop, Nobel Peace Prize winner, and veteran of the moral movement that ended apartheid in South Africa: "How can you be so hopeful after witnessing so much evil?" "Why are you so sure goodness will triumph in the end?" This book is his answer: that we are made for goodness and it is up to us to live up to our destiny. Written with his daughter, Episcopal priest Mpho Tutu, Made for Goodness provides a glimpse into Archbishop Tutu’s personal spirituality and a better understanding of the man behind a lifetime of good works. He engages his reader with intimate and touching stories from his own life, as well as grisly memories from his work in the darkest corners of the world. There, amid the darkness, he calls us to hope, to joy, and to claim the goodness that we were made for. Tutu invites us to take on the disciplines of goodness, the practices that are key to finding fulfillment, meaning, and happiness for our lives.

The Bridge at the Edge of the World: Capitalism, The Environment, and Crossing From Crisis to Sustainability
by James Gustave Speth
$18.00 Paperback

How serious are the threats to our environment? Here is one measure of the problem: if we continue to do exactly what we are doing, with no growth in the human population or the world economy, the world in the latter part of this century will be unfit to live in. Of course human activities are not holding at current levels — they are accelerating, dramatically — and so, too, is the pace of climate disruption, biotic impoverishment, and toxification. In his new book, Speth, author of Red Sky at Morning and a widely respected environmentalist, begins with the observation that the environmental community has grown in strength and sophistication, but the environment has continued to decline, to the point that we are now at the edge of catastrophe. Our vital task is now to change the operating instructions for today’s destructive world economy before it is too late. This book is about how to do that.

No Future Without Forgiveness
by Desmond Tutu
$15.95 Paperback

South Africa’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission was established to move the country forward by exposing the atrocities committed in the past and by achieving reconciliation with its former oppressors. Archbishop Desmond Tutu, named as Chairman of the commission by President Nelson Mandela, was at the center of this attempt at healing. In No Future Without Forgiveness Archbishop Tutu offers his reflections on the profound wisdom he has gained by helping usher South Africa through this painful experience. He argues that true reconciliation cannot be achieved by denying the past. Rather than repeat platitudes about forgiveness, he presents a bold spirituality that recognizes the horrors people can inflict upon one another, and yet retains a sense of idealism about reconciliation. With a clarity of pitch born out of decades of experience, Tutu shows readers how to move forward with honesty and compassion to build a newer and more humane world.
