  Previous books about the Findhorn Community have concentrated on the dramatic story of its founding and early development. But Findhorn continues to be an important part of a world-wide movement for personal and social transformation. So, what is it like to live in the Findhorn Community today? What is the continued inspiration behind its existence? How has this remarkably stable and long-lived community changed and developed over its 30 years? How is it organized and managed? What kind of people join it, and why - and what changes do they go through? In this book the author covers all this and more, including the community's development from its early patriarchal basis to its first hesitant steps into spiritual democracy, its evolving relationship with the earth and the environment, and the new businesses and independent projects springing up around it. She both sets the Findhorn Community in its contemporary global context and shows how the process of creating a new human identity unfolds day by day through the ordinary activities of people living and working together.
