BOOK REVIEW

 

Processes of the Lesser Peace

Edited by Babak Bahador and Nazila Ghanea
Published by George Ronald

 Book cover  

In view of some of the subjects covered at NI Summer School this year, the emphasis once again being placed on the World Order letters of Shoghi Effendi, and general public (and Bahá'í) interest in this whole area, this book is well worth reading. It is a series of papers dealing with aspects of the coming together of the world as a coherent whole—something for which we are all striving and which sometimes seems a long way off. Many questions will be answered and because it is a compilation readers can go straight for the themes that interest them most before moving on to the others. This book is highly recommended for anyone who is interested in the subject—as presumably we all are—but particularly those involved through membership or discussion with organisations of social change.

Editor’s note: In his last letter to the Bahá'ís of these islands the Guardian referred to “a wider dissemination of Bahá'í literature” as being a “rock-bottom requirement” for the progress of the Faith here. What we understand by literature has broadened to include audio-visual items, the Web, etc., but the need remains. So short reviews will be featured in CommuNIqué as space permits
