Changing Lenses By Howard Zehr
Changing Lenses examines our assumptions about crime and justice, which it terms a “retributive” lens or paradigm. It then looks at historical, biblical, and practical alternatives and proposes a “restorative” model. This model is based on the needs of victims and offenders, on past ways of responding to crime, on recent experiments, and on biblical principles.

Earth Prayers/Earth Songs by Elizabeth J. Roberts (Editor), Elias Amidon (Editor) ISBN: 006250746X
"In forest clearings, beneath star-filled skies, in cathedrals, and before the hearth...women and men have always given voice to the impulse to celebrate the world that surrounds and sustains them. Now, as we face a diminished present and an uncertain future, the need to honor the interconnection between people and the planet is heightened.
From Walt Whitman, Thich Nhat Hanh, and Black Elk, to Margaret Atwood, the Rig Veda, and the chant of a Samar fisherman, the varied voices linked here offer songs and prayers for land, sea, and air; graces for food; and invocations, poems, and passages that reveal in the common spiritual heritage of all who cherish creation."

Returning to the Teachings By Rupert Ross
"Returning to the Teachings is about aboriginal justice and much more, speaking not only to our minds, but also to our hearts and spirits. Above all, it stands for the values and visions that give life its significance and which any justice system, aboriginal or otherwise, must serve and respect." ISBN: 0140258701
