Humanity is poised between a breakthrough in democracy, sustainability, and possibility; and environmental destruction and social breakdown. In the Great Turning, David Korten describes the path to "The Great Turning" - "a life-centered, egalitarian, sustainable way of ordering human society based on democratic principles of partnership."
Korten's gift is to lead us through 5,000 years of Western Civilization's history, to show us where the origins of humanity's many pressing problems lie. And he is able to do this without being boring!
Riane Eisler, author of The Chalice and the Blade writes "This is a wise and much needed book that shows we can create cultures where our enormous human capacities for joy, caring, and cooperation are realized."
This is one eye-opening book, and we can't recommend it highly enough.
