Beschreibung
Centuries after the ""triumph of industrialism,"" we find ourselves wrestling through a paradox of wealth and loss, of abundance and loneliness. The home, once the principle ""factory"" of society, stands now as a mere shell of its former function and authority. The family, once the bedrock of civilization, is more divided today than it has been at any point in human [...] the face of such monumental shifts, corrupt philosophies, and entrenched interests, what can one family possibly do? Quite a bit, actually. We believe the answer can only come from families, and it can only start at home. The family economy is a concept so foreign to the modern industrial mind that it needs to be re-introduced and defined again as the solution that it has been for thousands of years.

That is what this book intends to do.
