An extraordinary book that truly transforms you inside-out...Vern Neufeld Redekop and Gloria Neufeld Redekop’s edited book has a fascinating collection of chapters that are intricately related to the three pillars of psychospiritual and transcendental life—spirituality, emergent creativity and reconciliation. Katherine Peil Kauffman's presentation of an integrated view of individual emotions to Naresh Singh's pioneering application of complexity theory to societal development, Karen Hamilton's and Iman Ibrahim's positions of religious conflict resolution to Lauren Levesque’s potential use of music in reconciliation, are striking examples of the many pragmatic perspectives. An evocative prescription that emerges out of the book is the use of complexity theory to integrate the inter-woven transformations at different scales—intrapersonal, interpersonal, and community, eventually leading to transformation of the entire biosphere.

Transforming, edited by Vern and Gloria Neufeld Redekop, is a refreshing and exciting volume that is in itself an example of “emergent creativity”—to use one of the book’s key concepts. The approaches to and processes of transformation offer many new theoretical ideas and examples of how to build peace that resonate with concepts of biological life, spirituality, justice, and the human heart. Throughout the book, the focus on creativity, generativity, and transformativity is so needed in our work, our communities, and our world.
