This is a wonderful exploration about how the art of story telling is changing everything.
As human beings, we are always told stories. There are stories about who we are, where we come from, and where we’re going.
Now imagine that one of these stories is taking over the others, narrowing our diversity and creating a monoculture.
Because of the rise of the economic story, six areas of your world, your work, community, physical and spiritual health, education, and creativity, are changing. Or, they may have already changed in subtle or not so subtle ways.
And because how we think shapes how we act, the monoculture isn’t just changing our mind–its changing our lives.
This is a book that will provoke your thinking and insights into the idea of stories and how significant they have been in your life.
The issues raised in this book will also make you want to reflect more deeply on culture and all that it has to offer and how we too can be part of the monoculture.
