"As human beings, we've always told stories: stories about who we are, where we come from, and where we're going. Now imagine that one of those stories is taking over the others, narrowing our diversity and creating a monoculture. Because of the rise of the economic story, six areas of your world -- your work, your relationships with others and the environment, your community, your physical and spiritual health, your education, and your creativity -- are changing, or have already changed, in subtle and not-so-subtle ways. And because how you think shapes how you act, the monoculture isn't just changing your mind -- it's changing your life" -- p. [4] of cover.
