First published in 1951, this book had its origin in a discussion as to whether the prime determining factor in human social relations is economic, as claimed by the Marxist world, and acted on implicitly by most of the rest of the world.

About the Iona Community

The Iona Community, was founded during the Depression years of the 1930s when George MacLeod took a group of trainee ministers and unemployed shipworkers from Glasgow’s Clydeside to the island of Iona to rebuild part of the ancient abbey. Intended as a sign of hope in dark times, it was also an experiment in living as a community that worked and worshipped together.

Over sixty years on, the Community is still committed to a spirituality of engagement and challenge and continues to thrive as a dispersed group of members, associates and friends from many walks of life based all over the UK and in many other countries.
