What is Rediscovering values : on Wall Street, Main Street, and your street : a moral compass for the new economy about?

When we start with the wrong question, no matter how good an answer we get, it wont give us the results we want. Rather than joining the throngs who are asking, When will this economic crisis be over? Jim Wallis says the right question to ask is How will this crisis change us?

We need a new normal, and this economic crisis is an invitation to discover what that means. Some of the principles Wallis unpacks for our new normal are . . .

And much, much more . . . In the pages of this book, Wallis provides us with a moral compass
