| Summary: | A powerful and provocative exploration of human value systems and how we measure success. This sequel to The Value Crisis (which first introduced the unique perspective offered) consists of thirteen provocative essays that share solutions for individuals and society, including both practical small steps and more idealistic large ones. Written in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, Our Second Chance explores how this global reset is actually an opportunity to rediscover happiness and see the world differently. The actions it proposes, mostly taken from proven trials in our history, cover a broad spectrum of goals, from improving your work/life balance through to sharing what actually needs to happen in order to take effective action on climate change. Each of the thirteen essays address a different aspect of the value crisis, and all of them end with a set actions that can be taken right away to produce meaningful change. |
