This book represents more than four years of collaboration through fieldwork, generation of ideas, shared writing, and mutual critique. Its product is thus a massive effort as Prof. Richard Cruess and Prof. Sylvia Cruess, the authors of Teaching Medical Professionalism, had pointed out, and for this I owe them so much. The team, however, had much by way of assistance, and I am gratefully acknowledging the many people who have contributed to the book. First among them are the students, residents, faculty members, and Prof. J. M. Muscat-Baron (the clinical dean of Dubai Medical College). I have profited a great deal from their comments and questions, and this has shaped the book in all sorts of ways.

As Christians, we are to love God with all of our being--heart, mind, soul and strength. But many of us tend to overemphasize one aspect or another, and as a result, our faith becomes imbalanced. Some of us have an intellectual faith but lack compassion or spiritual discipline. Others of us have a vibrant, heartfelt relationship with God but lack commitment to truth or doctrine. And many of us overlook translating our faith into service and ministry. In this book ethicist Dennis P. Hollinger presents a holistic, integrative vision for reuniting Christian thought, passion and action. He shows how individuals, churches and movements throughout history have focused on either the head, or the heart or the hands--often to the exclusion of other expressions. But by linking our intellect, emotions and actions, Hollinger points us toward a whole faith for the whole person, where each dimension feeds, nurtures and sustains the others.

Education as if people and planet mattered In Transformative Learning, Satish Kumar reflects on the legacy of Schumacher College, a beacon of innovation that fosters an ecological-based, holistic model of higher education built around the college's unique "learn by doing," head, heart, and hands pedagogy. Over fifty current and former instructors and alumni, including Vandana Shiva, David Orr, Kate Raworth, Fritjof Capra, Bill McKibben, Mary Evelyn Tucker, and Jonathon Porritt, paint a rich picture of education for human well-being and the ecological health of the planet. Contributions delve deeply into the nature of transformational learning and holistic education, present a wealth of alumni experiences of working towards an ecological society, and detail the expansion of the Schumacher model to Belgium, Brazil, India, Japan, and beyond. The result is a rich tapestry of ideas and educational methods packed with insights and experience for practitioners and activists looking to build a just, ecological society.

"In his follow-up to the bestselling The Road to somewhere, David Goodhart divides society into people who work with their Heads (cognitive work), with their Hands (manual work), or with their Hearts (caring work), and considers each group's changing status and influence. Today, the "the best and the brightest" trump the "decent and hardworking." Other qualities like character, craft, integrity, physical labor, and compassion command far less respect. This imbalance has led to the disaffection and alienation of millions of people. How did we get here? Goodhart, one of the boldest thinkers on the political shocks of recent years, reveals the untold history behind this disparity and outlines the challenges we face as a result. This is the dramatic story of the struggle for status and dignity in the twenty-first century."--Page 4 of cover
