Blessed Unrest: Restoring Grace, Justice, and Beauty

Paul Hawken has spent over a decade researching organizations in the worldwide movement for social and environmental changes. Through his insights, the reader will look into his perspectives coming from billion-dollar nonprofits to single person causes that color the activism efforts and spaces — much of which gets ignored by media and politicians. Looking at the diversity of efforts Hawken analyzes the centuries of hidden history, their leadership (or lack therof), and the many brilliant strategies and ideas that have come out of these efforts. This book aims to inspire those who despair over the fate of society and the world, and the conclusions this book draws will surprise even those who are engaged in the fight for change.
