Reasons for Hope: a Spiritual Journey Book

Based upon the many scientific, personal, and spiritual experiences that have graced and shaped her outlook on life, Jane Goodall is convinced there is a higher purpose to life, and that this purpose can best be served by developing and nourishing a deep respect for life in all its forms, as well as an on-goingcommitment to seek and understand the spiritual ties that bind us to the natural world. In this book, Dr. Goodall takes readers through the pivotal events in her life, and in doing so, touches upon such topics as faith and love, mysticism and science, evil and evolution, and the existence of the soul and God.
