If you care deeply about the state of the world but don't have the time or energy to devote your whole life to a good cause, then this completely updated and expanded edition of The Better World Handbook is for you. A perennial best-seller, it's the essential guide for busy people who care about making the world a better place but don't know exactly where to begin.

The Better World Handbook shows you how to build a world based on these Seven Foundations:

- Social Justice

- Comprehensive Peace

- Simple Living

- Ecological Sustainability

- Revitalized Community

- Deep Democracy

The Better World Handbook equips you to live out your values by providing a wide range of simple but effective actions that you can take every day - actions that focus on:

Money - Shopping - Food - Personal Life

Friends and Family - Community - Religion & Spirituality

Home - Work - Media - Politics

Transportation - Travel - Organizations

The Better World Handbook details the global challenges we face, provides solutions to those challenges, and includes a wide range of follow-up resources that cover everything from fair trade coffee to alternative news sources to hybrid cars.

Making the world a better place just got a whole lot easier.

The Better World Handbook gives us a step-by-step "blueprint" for creating conscious global citizens. It's a manual for better living that you will find yourself using over and over again.

But most of all, use it to change our world for the better.
