Bill Tara's 40 years of experience as a teacher, organizer and director (of Kushi Foundation, for one) comes through strongly in this unique book. This is not a how-to or why-eat-rice book, rather its emphasis is on why we need to change ourselves now and how to see clearly the issues and choices before us. It is a call to action--both personally and socially--to make our lives whole again. With clarity and compassion, Bill shows us the key steps to dietary and lifestyle changes that can change our lives for the better. This book points to a way to manifest macrobiotics in our lives that can impact ourselves, others and the world at the same time. I highly recommend this book.
