Forthcoming in October, pre-order it now. Advance look at cover and the Spiral of Empowerment can be seen at www.oss.net in the Collective Intelligence portal page.

Superb focus on how three out of five Americans want to restore democracy and decapitate the amoral Republican and Democratic "leaders" who are bribed servants of corproations. Neither the Executive nor Congress represent We the People, nor the democratic process.

Truly extraodrinary expanation of how we can self-govern via Wisdom Councils of, by, and for We the People.

From one of a handful of leaders in the world of Collective (Public) Intelligence. Core reading.

Single best book on the six belief systems in America that are in conflict.

Single best summary of how the people have been betrayed by their own governments (federal and state), corporations, and the manipulated monopoly media.

It used to legal to own slaves and abuse women. This is a classic book about when the common sense of the people DEMANDS "misbehavior" and the breaking of out-dated abusive processes that no longer represent America the Good. This is actually an American current perspective in the tradition of Emerson's Nature and Thoreau's Civil Disobedience.

Classic reference, the author is one of the handful that have been pioneering bottom-up face-to-face dialog for over a decade.

Recommended by Paul Hawken (see my list on Natural Capitalism), this is a counter-weight to the extreme right and its intolerant fundamentalists.

Another of a handful of moral leaders of the common conscience.

Differences really are helpful--only a full discussion of differences can acturally yield both consensus, and a sustainable way forward.

Superb and very serious book that outlines the utterly positive consequences of the public coming back together to restore America the Good.

Very high-level strategic view of where we can go.

Essential transpartisan guide. Documents flaws in two-party system, advocates individual engagement, finding new non-partisan ways to manage democratic dialog.

Widely praised (e.g. by Robert Buckman) as a fundamental reference for understanding and collaboratively addressing our complex Earth and Humanity.

Greaet overview of digital tools for social change, establishing connected activism, closing the listening gap.

Handbook for citizens doing better information collection and better localized analysis at no cost, than CIA can do now at great expense to the taxpayer. (No kidding).
