The Different Drum: Community Making and Peace

'The overall purpose of human communication is - or should be - reconciliation. It should ultimately serve to lower or remove the walls of misunderstanding which unduly separate us human beings one from another. . ' Although we have developed the technology to make communication more efficient and to bring people closer together we have failed to use it to build a true global community. Dr M. Scott Peck believes that if we are to prevent civilization destroying itself we must urgently rebuild on all levels local national and international and that is the first step to spiritual survival. In this radical and challenging book he describes how the communities work how group action can be developed on the principles of tolerance and love and how we can start to transform world society into a true community.
