The book follows the growth of Claire Atwater and her Nova Scotian family over a three-year period. It starts with a discussion of gas prices, and forcing them lower by slowing down to drive at the speed limit. It evolves to a spiritual plane on which people slow down to simplify their lives and take responsibility for the world. The speed limit movement spreads rapidly throughout the world, with very beneficial results for people and the environment. The originator of the movement, Claire, is awarded the Order of Canada for her innovation.This book will be appealing to thinking adults who care about the environment and about their children's future and their own future, not only in this life, but also in subsequent ones. It will be of special interest to spiritual people who have grown beyond conventional religion and who are open to a broad view of reality.

Humanity is ready for a fundamental transformation to a compassionate form of caring for each other and for the world. For example, see the books Pay It Forward and In Praise of Slowness, and also the "Slow Cities" movement that started in Italy. This book provides a model and inspiration for a grass-roots movement for such a fundamental transformation.
