McKinney’s GrowthThis book centers on a man who suddenly realises he had done very little with his life and given little back to society. After being mugged and receiving a head injury, over the months to follow his mind seems to be functioning much better than ever before. He embarks on the enormous plan of turning the world away from lust for the accumulation of financial wealth and finds a wealthy financier to back him, in the form of a middle-eastern oil seik. The goal of changing the world suddenly appears to come within reach and his time is taken up by touring the world to promote the idea.About The Author:T H O M A S J A M E S T A Y L O R, born Dec 1st, 1954.
