This is a book about simplicity - not destitution, parsimoniousness or
self-denial, but the restoration of wealth in the midst of an affluence
in which we are starving the spirit. It is a book about the advantages
of living a less cluttered, less stressful life than that which has
become the norm in the overcrowded and manic-paced consuming nations. It
is a book about having less and enjoying more, enjoying time to do the
work you love, enjoying time to spend with your family, enjoying time to
pursue creative projects, enjoying time for good eating, enjoying time
just to be.
