Ann Morisy is the first person to offer a faith-based perspective on intergenerational fairness.
Included in 'Great Christmas gifts' feature in The Church of England Newspaper
-
Ann Morisy... opens up a new vein of practical theology, offering the first faith-based exploration of intergenerational fairness... This book, with a text, layout and style of writing which are easy to read, is one for people seriously grappling with theological thinking with regard to a society where issues cannot any longer be viewed as clear-cut...
Fairacres Chronicle, Vo. 44 No.2

In this important book, Ann Morisy opens up 'today' to the judgment of the future. She does not shrink from the likely consequences of what she describes as our 'dastardly' self-love, but she rejects any hopeless passivity. The challenge is whether the beneficiaries of today can be transformed into a turnaround generation, securing and enhancing our human future.
The Rt Revd & Rt Hon Dr Richard Chartres, Bishop of London
-
A book that will challenge Christians and non-Christians alike on one of modern Britain's biggest injustices: one generation paying for the exceptional good luck of another.
The Rt Hon David Lammy, MP
-
... a thoroughly engaging, even riveting, read... This is an important and invigorating book.
