Author: Lynne Twist

Spent decades raising money to end hunger, including for The Hunger Project, and wrote The Soul of Money out of what she saw on both sides of that work.The argument is that scarcity is largely a story rather than a condition: the reflexive belief that there is not enough, that more is needed, and that this is simply how things are. She contrasts it with sufficiency, which she frames as a practice rather than an amount.The book carries real weight because she has taken money from the very wealthy and delivered it to the very poor, and is candid about how unhappy she found people at both ends.
