Book excerpt: This book introduces women from various parts of the world who have experienced violence in some form and used that experience to actively foster peace. Some of the women may be better known than others, for they are Nobel Peace Laureates. Yet each woman is equally prophetic in the bold love that creates a better world. The women represent a variety of countries and religious traditions. Yet there is a unity in the underlying spirituality of non violence that grounds each prophetic life and the loving work for human dignity, reconciliation and peace. The women are models for living in ways that transform the world.
