"A compelling and honest tapestry of hard-earned personal and collective wisdom, honoring the earth and igniting the revolutionary ways of women." --Eve Ensler, founder of V-Day and author of The Vagina Monologues."The world seems to be divided into two kinds of people—those who divide everything into two, and those who don’t. Reading Nature, Culture and the Sacred is a step toward melting the false division into “feminine” and “masculine,” and allowing each of us to become fully human again and at last." — GLORIA STEINEM, Co-founder of Ms. magazine"Nature, Culture and the Sacred is the perfect book for this historical moment.
