These ten principles were first ariculated by Kent Keith as a student at Harvard in the 1960's. Since then, unbeknownst to him, they were quoted,circulated, and appropriated by countless people-pliticians and academics,civic and religious leaders,businesspeople,students, and nonprofit organizations. They were taped to computer monitors, refrigerator doors,and to the walls of Mother Teresa's children's home in Calcutta.
It was upon learning of this last appearance that Kent Keith finally began to discover that his Paradoxical Commandments had traveled around the world and back again.And he was moved to put his commandments, the philosophy behind them, and the stories that bring them to life into this modern credo for living well, being happy.... and doing good anyway.
