Book Overview
You Can Change the World: The Global Citizen's Handbook for Living on Planet Earth should be required reading for anyone who cares about the future of the planet. Written by renowned scientist, futurist and Club of Budapest founder Ervin Laszlo, You Can Change the World answers two pertinent questions-first, what is at the root of all the conflict and crisis in today's world? And second, what can actually be done to move toward a world where we can live in peace, without marginalizing and killing each other and destroying the environment?A handbook that urges readers to become global citizens who aspire to live responsibly on this precious but highly exploited and crisis-prone planet, You Can Change the World provides a simple and basic message: in today's world it is neither wealth nor power, nor the control of territory and technology that make the crucial difference. How we think and act shapes our present and decides our future.

A Must Read for Awakanees
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This book is a must read for each and every human being whose consciousness is gradually awakening to the problems that humanity shares on our beautiful planet. The more it is being read and the pieces of advice adhered to, the more planetary consciousness will spread and take a lasting effect in the minds and hearts of our fellow inhabitants on planet earth. May the book's vision not turn out to be wishful thinking. The only thing I do not understand is the reason why Ervin Laszlo does not mention other visionary authors such as Thom Hartman (The Prophet's Way, The Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight), Neale Donald Walsch (Conversations with God), Ken Wilber (Four Quadrant Model), Don Beck (Spiral Dynamics), Stanislav Grof (Psychology of the Future) and others.
