April 22nd: Book Club MeetingSubmitted Thu, 2008-03-27 04:47 — plunsfo Our monthly book club meets again! Please join us for what have been lively conversations! We will be discussing The Great Turning by David Korten, Parts 2 and 3. (chapters 5-14. The chapters are pretty short, and emminently readable.)
There is great excitement about this book as David Korten addresses so magnificently issues we find ourselves very concerned about in the context of peak oil. We have decided to take 3 months to go through this book, as a result, and this is month #2. This longer timeline will enable everyone to appreciate in greater depth the importance of Korten's work.
