Customer Reviews

Economic Democracy

I distinctly remember reading this book as a kid. I am hoping to find or buy another copy sooner or later, but the way I remember the story line, the editor's summary in this case incorrect. I do not remember anything regarding retaliation. The way I remember it, the story centers around an exchange of one home for another. I am quite certain that this book was one source leading to my later involvement with cooperatives as a form of economic democracy, my belief in the dignity of work and the idea that for most transactions there exists an exchange which will benefit both parties.

I recomend this book to many people

This a incredible fun filled book and is one of the many great books that I have read in the last few months and I was suprised that no one had reviewed such a great book and I highly recommend this book to any reader . This is a book about a group of sea creaturess a lobster a crab a fish and a star fish and all their friends who help them in the many encounters they have trying to scavenge materials for their under water garden .
