1 This book is a key in the door of freedom for investors!
This is the best book I've read in over a year! The author is a skilled writer with a powerful, useful message. She teaches complex ideas in plain language and is easy to understand. One of the "ah-ha!" moments for me was how she helped me see that my fear of understanding finance and investments was because I didn't want to become a cause of human suffering just to make enough to retire comfortably, and that investments in stocks and bonds have traditionally caused companies to focus only on profits (at any cost). She gave me a way to invest with a conscience, and to live my values. I am very grateful, and wholeheartedly recommend this book.

2 Socially responsible but not "Catholic" responsible
While the Domini fund is very socially responsible, it still invests heavily in "socially progressive" companies like Microsoft that offer benefits to same-sex marriages. Those Catholics out there who are seeking to practice socially responsible investing while also following the Church's teachings should instead look at the Ave Maria or Aquinas group funds.

	My message is not that biological determinists were bad scientists or

even that they were always wrong.  Rather, I believe that science must be

understood as a social phenomenon, a gutsy, human enterprise, not the work of

robots programmed to collect pure information.  I also present this view as

an upbeat for science, not as a gloomy epitaph for a noble hope sacrificed on

the alter of human limitations.

	I believe that a factual reality exists and that science, though often

in an obtuse and erratic manner, can learn about it.  Galileo was not shown

the instruments of torture in an abstract debate about lunar motion.  He had

threatened the Church's conventional argument for social and doctrinal

stability:  the static world order with planets circling about a central

earth, priests subordinate to the Pope and serfs to their lord.  But the

Church soon made its peace with Galileo's cosmology.  They had no choice; the

earth really does revolve about the sun.
