A gripping narrative of a life at the forefront in a global movement, readers will also gain an insider’s knowledge of the origins of major centers of holistic learning, learn why they have served as such focal points for positive change, and how are they part of a worldwide emergence of points of holistic learning intent on bringing greater sanity, wisdom and awareness to the world.
