This I believe

by Jay Allison

Based on the NPR series of the same name, the bestselling *This I Believe* features eighty essayists - from the famous to the previously unknown -- completing the thought that begins the book's title. Each piece compels us to rethink not only how we have arrived at our own personal beliefs but also the extent to which we chare them with others. The result is a stirring and provocative trip inside the minds and hearts of a diverse group of people whose beliefs - and the remarkably varied ways in which they choose to express them - reveal the American spirit at its best.
