The book for March is Blessed Unrest: How the Largest Social Movement in History is Restoring Grace, Justice and Beauty to the World by Paul Hawken
This is a genuinely whole-Earth catalog of
environmental and social activism. It hits the reader first as a revelation -- because of the form, scale, and consequence of the phenomenon reported -- and then as a tool. The world is busy saving itself. With this book you learn where and how to plug into the process.
--Stewart Brand, creator of The Whole Earth Catalog
"By
its existence, the Peace Movement denies
that governments know best; it stands for
a different order of priorities: the human
race comes first."
-- Martha Gellhorn
