To see peace in our lifetimes, we have to study love. This is the radical message of this inspirational book of pithy grandfatherly advice, which helps us find ways to love ourselves, others, and all beings-even those we may find unlovable.Author and activist Satish Kumar is well known for his epic 1960s walk for world peace from India to Moscow, Paris, London, and Washington, DC. Wherever he traveled, he found that human beings were capable of great love, which could overcome hatred and division. Settling down in the UK, he met his wife, June Mitchell, and raised two children while founding and running eco-university Schumacher College in Devon, eventually becoming a leading figure in the UK green movement. Radical Love draws on the author's lifetime of experience as a lover, husband, parent, activist, and educator. It is an exploration of love in all its forms, from romantic love to love for one's family and community to love for the planet and all beings. Like an unfolding metta meditation, the book expands our notions of love to its most sublime universal state and makes a great gift to share with those we love.
