The book challenges the belief that a focus on personal fulfillment undermines dedication to the common good. Through extensive ethnographic research on various environmentalist groups, Paul Lichterman demonstrates how individualism can actually strengthen public and political commitment, offering a nuanced perspective on the interplay between personal aspirations and collective action.
