In this funny, readable, and thought-provoking book based on the popular film of the same name, activists John de Graaf (coauthor of the bestselling Affluenza) and David Batker tackle thirteen economic issues, challenging the reader to consider the point of our economy. Emphasizing powerful American ideals, including teamwork, pragmatism, and equality, de Graaf and Batker set forth a simple goal for any economic system: The greatest good for the greatest number over the longest run. Drawing from history and current enterprises, we see how the good life is achieved when people and markets work together with an active government to create a more perfect economy-one that works for everyone.

How hypnotized are you by the content of your life? That is to say, how deeply are you identified with your ideas, opinions, labels, profession, society, culture? The first step towards finding true happiness is realizing that you have been attached to and seeking happiness through the content of your life. In this extraordinary teaching session, Eckhart Tolle shows you how to become free of fear, unease, discontent, and other dysfunctions of the human mind, by going beyond identification with content. The deep inner stillness that underlies his words serves as a transmission that will reveal to you your own inner depth, a dimension of consciousness that is one with the eternal Now. This is the only place where true happiness can be found.
