I've posted a book review that may be of interest to some of you. The author looks at the ideas of four Western philosophers, one Islamic scholar and one Eastern philosopher, Confucius, and discusses fundamental beliefs upon which people from varied cultures can build trust and respect.

Hey family! I hope you take the time to read Evie's book reviews. They are interesting and thought provoking.
For this book review it made me think about the context of the rich cultural mosaic of Canada. I always appreciate those who try to tie a thread through various faiths and philosphies. By and large I have discovered that there is enough common ground that we are able to develop a respect for one another no matter one's relgious or ideological background.
We have to move from being a "tolerant" society to that of one that celebrates not only our similarities, but each others uniqueness.
