Paradigms in Progress

Hazel Henderson provides a survival guide for our ride on the "tiger of change," offering new directions and expanded contexts for creating patterns of operation based on win-win models and a new planetary culture. She provides numerous examples of the new paradigm and outlines concrete steps toward it, including the use of renewable resources and chaos systems theory, the greening of social policy, and the pursuit of sustainable, gender-balanced development.Prelude: Pecos River Meditation
