Excerpt from Evelin Lindner's foreword:

Humankind is moving, sometimes two steps ahead and one step back, through dramatic and often painful relational changes from authoritarian societies toward partnership societies where all enjoy equality in dignity.

To develop the vital knowledge we need to address these daunting challenges, our use of language needs to change. If we are to survive as a human species, we must follow our dear Francisco’s example and lovingly encourage everyone’s best contributions of knowledge and wisdom. ...
