Reseña del editor:
Paul Simon, former Senator from illinois and Presidential candidate, widens a national debate. September 11th, 2001 changed everything: we are beginning to realise that what happens to one of us happens to all of us. And we are beginning to understand that what happens to our brothers and sisters in foreign lands also happens to us. Mr.Simon calls for a new way of thinking and challenges us to new priorities, a renewing of the best American values. Simon expands on the familiar meaning of values such as family, religion, equality, optimism and initiative. He also explores equally important but less talked about values: restraint, humility, participation, compassion, integrity and much more. Healing America reminds us to extend our highest vision and values by living them here and now.
