    I have the first edition of Joanna Macy’s “Active Hope”. Is there many differences or can I use it in the readings?

      Hi Mateus

      I don't know but wouldn't imagine so. It should be fine to use it and seems unnecessary to buy a new copy.

        Satlah

        I have not read either yet so can not say how similar they are. I would assume there are changes. When reading David Loys book we started off referencing page numbers then went to subchapter titles because some were reading digital copies. So if pages/sub chapters have changed that may require a little work. You could start off with the earlier version and see how it goes.

          Looks like Kokuu and my response passed in digital space!

          I would like to suggest an idea that Kokuu and I have discussed for your consideration. Kokuu and I took the lead in summarizing the readings (alternating) last time. We wondered if others would be willing to share that responsibility with us. It would give others a chance to take the lead and offer a different perspective at the start. Of course we will all add our thoughts. Nobody “has” to do this…volunteers only!!

          Your thoughts?

              i did buy a copy of the revised edition (but i am a collector, and my dukkha comes from greed for books ). When i look at the "contents" of both i see some chapters have different names.. But the books have exactly the same number of chapters, 13, and of pages: 272..

              So i suppose Doshin gives a good advise:

                      I am looking forward to exploring this book, which I recently picked up. For folks with an older edition, I noted that the Active Hope website has a list of differences in the new edition.
