Instead of experts talking at us, this innovative literary collection shares the voices of fellow citizens struggling to make sense of the concrete changes taking place in our world today. Instead of scientific facts and predictions, this book offers personal essays, poems, and short stories expressing what's going on in people's lives, hearts, and dreams. Instead of leaving readers guilty and disempowered, this book will help us all to begin to work through the full range of emotions--confusion, fear, sorrow, anger, and realistic hope--that we must face in confronting the crisis. Showcasing the voices of a wide range of authors--from prize-winning writers and poets such as Roxana Robinson, Audrey Schulman, and Barbara Crooker, to regular citizens and young people--Facing the Change offers a new opportunity for moving past denial and despair to awareness and action.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Steven Pavlos Holmes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1937226271\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781937226275\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Torrey House Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/15\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 173\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.30w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/09\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/15\/2013 pg. 6","brand":"Steven Pavlos Holmes","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46372465148159,"sku":"9781937226275","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_24e43890-3b56-4134-a24a-744ddfe17d9f.jpg?v=1732726023","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/facing-the-change-steven-pavlos-holmes-9781937226275","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
