Sharing Prosperity

Filipinos regularly lament the sorry state of their nation, and the authors in this book are no exception. Yet, as their individual reflections take shape, a growing sense of anticipation envelops the reader in light of their optimistic tone and creative accounts. Representing a wide range of disciplines, the authors are nonetheless single-minded in their passion for a social transformation that produces a caring, equitable, and productive society with the human person located squarely in the middle. Through their teaching, research, and community outreach, the contributors take pride in sharing the Ateneo's commitment to academic excellence inextricably linked to social justice. —From the Introduction by Mary Racelis
