Reseña del editor

Part One features the inspiring story of the Peace People, the open letter to the IRA, and Maguire's thoughts on the role of Irish women in the struggle for peace. Part Two includes Maguire's reflections on Gandhi and nonviolence, pilgrimages to Auschwitz, the former Yugoslavia, and Hiroshima, and the nomination of Daniel and Philip Berrigan for the Nobel Peace Prize. Part Three expands her reflections on the future of the planet, the church's vocation to make peace, and the campaign with twenty Nobel Peace prize winners to call for a new millennium dedicated to teaching nonviolence. In her epilogue, Maguire discusses the Good Friday accords' impact on the future of Ireland and how Ireland can find resolution with its violent past.
