Alastair McIntosh

    Alastair McIntosh is a writer who explores the connections between people, place, and spirituality to foster a deeper understanding of community. He views global crises as crises of the human condition requiring evolution that is more cultural than political, economic, or technical. As a Quaker with both Christian and interfaith perspectives, McIntosh sees spirituality as "that which gives life," and more specifically, "life as love made visible." His work, often controversial, aims to challenge corporate and landed power.
