The author describes the context in which Rudolf Steiner expressed his idea of "the fundamental social law" and how much it meant to him, and how, when his ideas fell on barren ground, he selflessly laid them aside, while holding them in his heart in hope of a more opportune moment. He goes on to show how this moment came after World War I, when Steiner dedicated himself tirelessly to his proposed idea of the Threefold Social Organism, lecturing extensively on economics and social policy. Finally, in the final, extraordinarily moving chapter, Selg shows the essential Christ- (and Gospel-) inspired nature of Steiners ideas.
