Sharif has definitely got his finger on the pulse! Not only does he go into unique detail clarfiying the issues facing our local and global society, he offers powerful solutions - both next steps and long range strategies. I cannot recommend this book enough. Everyone should read it, and read it soon!

We have to change it now!, May 24, 2007
By Gift Card
Luckily Patch Adams listed this book from his personal library on his web page. That is how I began the search for my own copy, thank you Amazon.
America is a powerhouse, but like a star athlete in a drunken brawl, a powerhouse out of control. Sharif M. Abdullah gives us the keys for building a nourishing nation that does indeed work for all, instead of a toxic one that works barely hit and miss. He also addresses our soul-starved condition that dominates our present day culture. Americans, rich and poor are continually asking, "where's the beef?" Give yourself 48 hours to get this book into your own hands, it is amazing. Be prepared to roll up your sleeves and get into the transformation game, no bench warmers allowed!

A practical guide for soulfully changing the world, December 26, 2008
By Lynn Owens
Sharif Abdullah offers a clear vision of both "the Mess" we've created and a practical path to fixing it. He ties together seeming opposites, showing how inner spiritual malaise enables broken societies and unsustainable economies, yet how individual action, courage and compassion hold the keys to mending the Mess. His ideas are revolutionary yet practical and the book is full of simple examples and concrete next steps.
