Prescription for living

the long version

Taken from the back cover: "The subject of this challenging book is man's present unhappiness, confusion and uncertainty. The author has special qualifications to write on this problem. Canadian by birth, growing up in the Western world, Ruhiyyih Rabbani married in 1937 the head of the Baha'i Faith, one of the most remarkable spiritual movements of our time. She now lives in Haifa, at the foot of Mount Carmel. Her great experience of both East and West, furthered by world-wide travel and correspondence, is combined with a deep appreciation and understanding of human beings in diverse races and cultures. With sympathy, assurance and humour, the author phrases, in homely terms, truths which are at once arresting and provocative. She speaks directly to the individual of the dynamic laws of spiritual life - the prescription for living in the world today."
