What happens when one spouse intimidates his or her partner day after day after day? What impact does it have if an employee's dignity is stripped away by abusive corporate policies? When a powerful government flexes its muscle against weaker nations, what price will it pay? These are questions Robert Fuller explores in his discussion of "rankism," defined as the abuse of power inherent in rank.

We all want to "be somebody." But often, those who become somebody become statues, trapped in an identity that doesn't allow them to change or grow. Robert Fuller talks about his own struggle with being a nobody between periods of high recognition and status. He has learned to respect the "nobody" inside himself because "the nobody is actually the creative fellow, while the somebody is just the performer."

Recovering the natural way and restoring balance to life provides the theme for the Fosters’ extraordinary explorations. In the eye of the hurricane there is calm, and the Fosters’ living expression during turbulent times inspires and challenges us to re-examine our own values. The Fosters direct the School of Lost Borders in Big Pine California, and are co-authors of The Book of the Vision Quest (Island Press 1980).
