What Matters Most?

Steven Baum was concerned with the big questions of life and asked others what mattered to them as well. He traveled extensively in order to find an answer. A great variety of people are represented here mostly ordinary and some famous: Miss America a Tibetan lama a Turkish shepherd a cowboy prostitutes police and politicians. Their statements range in length from a one-word answer to a page reflecting at times a little thought while others reflect the depths of the souls. He shares their wisdoms as they were told to him on his sojourn and the sense of meaning derived.</p><p>Between 1990-2001 Baum conducted interviews in the following nations: Argentina Australia Bahamas Bhutan Belize Brazil Canada Costa Rica China Czech Republic Denmark England Egypt Estonia Finland France Germany Guatemala Greece Holland Hong Kong Iceland India Indonesia Ireland Israel Italy Japan Kenya Korea Laos Malaysia Mali Mexico Mongolia Nepal New Zealand Norway Papua New Guinea Peru Russia Scotland Singapore South Africa Spain Serbia Sweden Switzerland Tahiti Taiwan Thailand Tibet Turkey USA.
