Martin Luther King‚ Mother Teresa‚ Mahatma Gandhi. Most would agree-these were great people. But what about those individuals whom we interface with on a daily basis? Chances are‚ many of them are good people but would we dare to call them great? And if so‚ why?

Inspired by this question the authors set out to discover the inner secret of greatness‚ traveling through India‚ France‚ Chile and Spain in search of an answer to the question‚ 'What is it that causes someone to act in ways that others hail as great?

They interviewed a wide range of people from the then president of India to a saintly French Jesuit priest. They found that in each case the following three things came into play: the person saw with love‚ acted from the heart‚ and was at the right place at the right time.
To help them make sense of what they were learning‚ they turned to a Man of Science‚ Humberto Maturana a renowned neurobiologist and a leading exponent of modern systems thinking‚ and a Woman of God‚ Dadi Janki a spiritual leader and chief of the Brahma Kumaris where her primary focus is on bringing spiritual wisdom to the world. Together‚ they share a scientific and spiritual approach to the concept of greatness and their complimentary ideas are both fascinating and enlightening.

Key Features:

* Inspirational stories about extraordinary people and how they changed history.
* Interviews with well-known people who have selflessly given their time and money to help others and make a difference in the world.
