This book is divided into three sections. "The poetics of money" tells something of the cultural story of money by looking at works of art from the Renaissance to pop and conceptual art, and exploring these different modes of artistic expression as a way to understand how our own attitudes toward money are formed through the cultural messages we digest, both unconsciously and consciously. "The topography of transactions" explores the inner landscape of financial transactions. The third section, "A wealthof transformation" consists of interviews with individuals who have transformed themselves, as they have transformed the world, through social entrepreneurship, philanthropy, philosophical inquiry into money, investing, and spiritual practice.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Coming to terms with money is one of the great transformational challenges of our time. This collection of essays and interviews is an invitation and inquiry addressing that challenge on a systemic and personal level. The book presents an engaging worldview that emerges from the intersection of money and spirit. Practical, spiritual, and unwavering, it investigates the financial world as it plays out in daily life through our transactions.The first section, called The Poetics of Money, is framed on historical and contemporary works of art that reveal some of the cultural history of money. From the Renaissance to Pop Art to the Conceptual, artists have recognized the iconic power of money. They have moralized through it, played on its replicability, and suggested some of its archetypal power. The author explores these modes to better understand how our own attitudes about money are formed--unconsciously and consciously--through our culture.The second section, The Topography of Transactions, explores the inner landscape of financial transactions. By looking at the various qualities of money and how we work with them inwardly and in our relationships, the connections between money, human development, and consciousness emerges. Faith, hope, and love--powerful forces in our lives--are central to our financial well-being.The third section, A Wealth of Transformation, consists of interviews with individuals who have transformed themselves as they transformed the world through social entrepreneurship, philanthropy, philosophical inquiry into money, investing, and spiritual practice. These exemplars represent the many who have recognized that the financial world needs to change if we are to have peace in the world. Artikel-Nr. CIN0880106344G
