With Peter Senge
For the first time in human history the things we do in our own backyard have the potential to affect, for better and for worse, people in every corner of the world. But the growth of our awareness of this new reality has not kept pace with the rapid expansion of the web of interdependencies across the planet. Peter takes aim at our "mass hypnosis" and exhorts us to think twice about everyday choices we make unconsciously and automatically. Are millions of chronically dehydrated people in northern India really suffering because of our profligate consumption of hydrocarbons? Has our global economic system brought cheap food to the rich and expensive food to the poor in a "race to the bottom" feared by corporations and local growers alike? Drawing on both his vast knowledge and deep concern for those marginalized by forces seemingly beyond control, Peter illuminates the dynamic systems that hold both challenge and promise for our future.
