This is an organizing tool, not just book.

You can read it on your own and learn a great deal, or you can use it as a guide to other readings. Even better, you can use it as a self-guided course for adults through your community center, religious community, school, or citizen's action group. Here are a sample of blurbs from the back cover:Robert Irwin's book lays out the choices before us clearly and accurately... If it stimulates thought and action, the possibilities for human survival will be enhanced. (Noam Chomsky, MIT)Building a Peace System is magnificent. The scope is staggering, the presentation clear and wonderfully useful, and the orientations to each topic are just superb. (by Gordon Fellman, Brandeis University sociologist, and author of Rambo and the Dalai Lama)An inspired work in the best tradition of community-based movement learning: participatory, empowering, and firmly anchored in solid scholarship on the one hand and radical imagination on the other. (Elise Boulding, former Secretary General, International Peace Research Association, and author of Cultures of Peace)
