This is the most provocative and engaging book I have read in my life. I watched it unfold from Roger's pen as he "channeled" it over several years in our Thursday writer's group. It all rings so, so true. It was a wake up call to honor Mother Earth, and take as much care of her as she has taken care to provide for us.
Whether you are a devout believer, an atheist, or a pure scientist .... this book will stretch you in incredible ways. Cannot recommend more highly.
