Editor's note:
The challenges we face can be difficult even to think about....Active Hope shows how to strengthen our capacity to face this crisis so that we can respond with unexpected resilience and creative power. This process equips us with tools to face the mess we are in and play our role in the collective transition, or Great Turning, to a life-sustaining society.
Recommendation; "Books about social and ecological change too often leave out a vital component; how do we change ourselves so that we are strong enough to fully contribute to this great shift? - Naomi Klein, author of The Shock Doctrine
"If you have despaired for our world, and if you love life, Active Hope will be for you an extraordinary blessing." - John Robbins, author of Diet for a New America and The Food Revolution.
