OT James Robertson, former policy-maker for Prime Minister Harold Macmillan and director of British banking research, and Paul Hawken, environmentalist, author and co-chair of The Natural Step International, provide a thought-provoking Preface and Introduction, respectively. Among the other contributors are David Brower, founder of Friends of the Earth and the first executive director of the Sierra Club; Herman Daly, professor at the University of Maryland, School of Public Affairs and former senior economist at the World Bank; Helena Norberg-Hodge, director of the International Society of Ecology and Culture; and Mary Flynn, CEO of the Community Housing Land Trust Foundation, Mark Roseland, director of the SFU CED Centre, and others. Divided into four sections, Small is Beautiful addresses "The Modern World," "Resources," "The Third World," and "Organization and Ownership." Each section is profusely annotated with remarks and amplifications from the contributors. The book closes with a chapter of resource groups, including contact information for interested readers. My youngest daughter is graduating from UCLA this spring with a degree in Environmental Studies/Geography, and I'll share this book title with her. Sounds like something she would find interesting. It's certainly a counter argument to the article I shared last week. I would imagine with the growing use of the Internet, what was once considered revolutionary will soon be considered archaic. The fact that we are corresponding is proof of how small a very large world can be. Thanks for sharing. Pat
