Costing Not Less Than Everything Sustainability and Spirituality in Challenging Times 2011 Swarthmore Lecture by Pam Lunn
With quiet urgency and deep honesty Pam Lunn addresses the unsustainability of the way we all live in the industrialized West, but this is not a counsel of despair or guilt. Realistic and well informed about the evolutionary basis of cooperation as well as the spiritual dimension, she puts forward an unsentimental argument for the possibility as well as the necessity of community.

He acknowledges the evil and devastation caused by terrorist acts, but argues for a more nuanced understanding of what might drive people to kill indiscriminately.
