A crisis of values underlies the economic uncertainty and anxiety about the future of the United States. The author of this book observes the shift of emphasis from productivity to consumption, from contribution to entitlement, and from long-term investment to short-term gain. With the demise of authority and rise of pluralism, identifying and sustaining a public morality which emphasizes responsibility and commitment to community has become near impossible. This uplifting work encourages the rediscovery of the person in others and in ourselves in order to attain an unprecedented quality of life. Lee concludes that hope is where we least expect to find itoin each of us.
