Simple Truths: On Values, Civility and Our Common Good (Hardback)

It's rush hour. The radio reports bumper-to-bumper traffic, rising interest rates, falling confidence, and another political scandal, when a quieter, less hurried voice asks: "When was the last time you were asked to do something great?" The question begins a brief observation on simple truths - easily neglected but deeply significant - about life, meaning, values, and our common good. Adapted from Stephen Bauman's popular radio commentary, "Simple Truths" offers a daily dose of graceful reflection for twenty-four hour rush-hour readers.
