Voluntary Simplicity: Toward a Way of Life That Is Outwardly Simple, Inwardly Rich (Revised)

A work in the emerging dialogue over sustainable living. It discusses happiness and living with balance. It illuminates the shift toward green ways of living growing around the world and shows the promise of a fresh pathway into the future. First published in 1981, "Voluntary Simplicity" was quickly recognised as a powerful and visionary work in the emerging dialogue over sustainable living. Now - nearly thirty years later and with the planet facing the perfect storm of an economic, ecological, and humanitarian crisis - Duane Elgin has once again revised and updated his revolutionary book. "Voluntary Simplicity" is not about sacrifice and living in poverty; it is a book about happiness and living with balance. Elgin illuminates the shift toward green ways of living growing around the world and shows the promise of a new pathway into the future.
