All Bah' parents face special problems in bringing up their children in a world dominated by very different principles from those governing a Bah' society. This book meets those problems head on, as it explores human nature and the rich theme of 'the Covenant', with its implications for family and community. Quotations from the Bah' Writings tie the book closely to the source of its inspiration, and the author's own imagination and vitality build a bridge from ideals to everyday life. The author comes from a distinguished Bah' family and herself has a daughter.
