Principles for a Self-Directed Society sets forth four basic goals, which seem modest in their simplicity:1. to live in peace2. to restore the natural environment3. health and prosperity4. basic rights: freedom, privacy and equalityThese goals are not radical or extreme. They are long-term goals, not easily attained; but they are goals which most reasonable people want for themselves and for their descendents.This work is predicated on the principle that people working together can improve the world by consciously creating positive social change.

Friends go to the woods to celebrate the Pagan roots of modern culture. But their nature worshiping youthful exuberance soon comes under attack from an intolerant society. Now they must rise up and declare the return of the world''s oldest religion. It''s back!"Rise of the Pagans" is an examination of the ancient Pagan roots of our modern holidays and calendar, with special focus on the Wheel of the Year and the Pagan Sabbats, told from the perspective of a new member joining a group of Pagan friends.
