This volume cautions leaders and activists who have experienced success to guard against the rigidity that can come with power and to avoid simplistic understandings of good and evil. The author argues that those in power must accept a certain chaos level, not just tolerating multicultural differences but actively engaging differences. Women must not focus only on seeking consensus, but also must feel comfortable exercising power; leaders need not aim for utopia or the end of evil, but should have realistic expectations. In the book, political work is linked to spirituality, aiming to show how we can channel the sense of being connected to forces outside ourselves to a larger good.
