In this much anticipated memoir, Tim Costello takes us with him on a journey through his whole life. In a thoughtful and stimulating way, Tim explores his childhood and beyond including the main influences on his development as a socially active fighter for the world's most challenging issues. He introduces those who have helped him to look beyond himself and to see where and how he can make a difference. Integral to who Tim Costello is, he explains how his faith has sustained him when confronted with the big issues facing our world.

Challenging and thought provoking no matter what the status of your faith, A Lot with A Little is a book to savour and re-read.

Tim Costello is one of Australia’s leading voices on social justice and global poverty and has been instrumental in ensuring these issues are placed on the national and international agenda.

Tim was named in the Australian of the Year awards in 2006 and was awarded an Order of Australia in 2005.
