Review
Melody Kemp is an activist, occupational health expert and author of a book on women's occupational health issues who splits her time between writing and working part-time in public health. She also trains women industrial workers. She does not think twice about waging a battle with anybody who makes the mistake of maltreating women and workers. In 1995, Melody, an Australian, who can be at home anywhere, moved to Bali to write a book. Bali probably provides better nourishment for Melody's spirituality. When Melody spoke to us about her spirituality, her words were like a running brook flowing over rocks and turning with the natural bend of the terrain. You could lose yourself in the flow of her consciousness. Over after-lunch coffee, she spontaneously yet thoughtfiilly traced some of the turning points in her spiritual development.
