Autobiography of a Pilgrim

Satish Kumar New extended edition celebrating 25 years of Schumacher College

NOVEMBER 2014 Green Books ISBN 9780857842619 216mm x 138mm 344pp

£17.99 hb

The author Satish Kumar is an internationally renowned speaker on ecological and spiritual issues. He lives in England and is editor-inchief at Resurgence & Ecologist magazine, co-founder of Schumacher College and founder of the Schumacher Society UK.

When he was only nine years old, Satish Kumar renounced the world and joined the wandering brotherhood of Jain monks. Dissuaded from this path by an inner voice at the age of eighteen, he became a campaigner for land reform, working to turn Gandhi’s vision of a renewed India and a peaceful world into reality.

Fired by Bertrand Russell’s anti-nuclear campaigning, he undertook an 8,000-mile peace pilgrimage, walking from India to Washington DC to deliver packets of ‘peace tea’ to the leaders of the four nuclear powers. Without any money, the pilgrims walked through deserts, mountains, storms and snow, relying on local generosity and hospitality. It was an adventure during which he was thrown in jail in France and faced a loaded gun in America.

Written with simplicity, No Destination is an exhilarating account of an extraordinary life. This fourth edition features new chapters celebrating 25 years of Schumacher College and brings Satish’s story up to date.

New foundations for a transformed economy

Irene Schoene

JUNE 2015 Green Books

ISBN 9780857843098 234mm x 156mm 640pp

ÂŁ29.99 hb

The author Irene Schoene holds a doctorate in politics and economics and has spent a career working in environmental economics as well as writing and speaking on these issues.

She is currently a non-executive director at Germany’s green bank, the UmweltBank AG, Nuremberg.

Modern economics bases its view of the world on assumptions Adam Smith made about nature and people nearly three hundred years ago, in a time when people travelled by horse and carriage and wrote by the light of candles. We now live in a globally connected, postindustrial world of digital communication and advanced technology - and yet, our economic model remains stuck in the past.

Taking a thorough look at economics, including the history and how we reached our current way of thinking, Irene Schoene puts forward an alternative economics that is not only relevant to our modern world of technology and industry, but which also shows an awareness of environmental considerations.

This book is a must-read for anyone who has questioned our economic model, wondered how the financial crash was able to happen, or wondered what we can do stop it happening again.

Farm digesters are best known as a means for producing biogas. The benefits of anaerobic digesters are much more far-reaching than that, however, as they also reduce the environmental problems caused by livestock farms at the same time as recycling fertiliser. They represent a significant way to make both our energy supplies and our food production more sustainable, whilst enabling us to run cost-effective farms.

This no-nonsense guide to farm digesters provides a wealth of useful information for anyone who wants to know more, including the benefits of using them, and how to go about installing one.

Leadership as service

Alastair McIntosh & Matt Carmichael

OCTOBER 2015 Green Books ISBN 9780857843005 234mm x 156mm 288pp

£19.99 pb The authors Alastair McIntosh is an independent scholar, activist, writer, speaker and broadcaster. He regularly presents the Scottish Thought for the Day on BBC Radio 4. Matt Carmichael is a climate activist, English teacher and writer. He was a founder board member of Schumacher North and is the creator of the Delta course in Spirituality.

Over the past half century the issues facing activists have changed in nature, as has our understanding and awareness of spirituality. Spirituality is rising up the agenda for activists because it offers distinct, tried and tested approaches to deep questions: where did it all go wrong? What does it mean to be human? What is the place of leadership? What is the nature of power?

This book starts from scratch, defining spirituality for a generation bemused or appalled by religion and sometimes dazzled by the claims of materialism. Where others attempt to distinguish science and religion, Spiritual Activism instead contrasts spirituality and materialism.

The text is peppered with tales from the authors’ activist experience and includes case studies of inspirational spiritual activists which demonstrate the transformative power of spiritual principles in action.

A handbook for sustainable agriculture

Colin Tudge

NOVEMBER 2015 Green Books ISBN 9780857841230 234mm x 156mm 288pp

£17.99 hb

The author Colin Tudge is a biologist, science writer and author, who has a passion for food and agriculture. In 2004 Colin coined the term ‘Enlightened Agriculture’, which gave rise to The Campaign for Real Farming.

He was involved in the running of the first Oxford Real Farming Conference and with Ruth West launched ‘Funding Enlightened Agriculture’ to support organizations who are in line with the idea of enlightened agriculture.

The farms that are truly productive, sustainable and resilient are the mixed, tightly integrated and low-input farms, which are complex and need a lot of skilled people to run them. These are the kinds of farms that we need more of, yet they are becoming increasingly rare as the market is dominated by large-scale industrial farms that are run in a way that keeps the cost down with little care for environmental or animal welfare.

Drawing on his years of experience working in the farming industry, Colin Tudge shows us not only why we need a renaissance in our approach to agriculture, but also how we can get it started.

Eight Steps Back to the Land takes you through: • The principles of farming and the global context • What needs to be done to change farming • What kind of farming we need for a sustainable future • How any of us might get involved – from window box to working farm • Practical applications: full time and part time farming • How to overcome the legal and financial barriers • Fundraising and ethical investment opportunities Written in an accessible way, and with an awareness of the practicalities of modern life, this is a book that will inspire anyone – from city streets or rural roots – to take an interest in the food chain and become motivated to make a difference.
