Reviews

I read this book in 2001 and it was mind expanding. It's a collection of essays by some of the forward thinkers of our time...it is one of those pick up for ten minutes books... read one essay and walk away fulfilled for the next three days or more.
I recall signing on and taking an ecourse as a followup that made the read even more valuable.

The cover says: "Visions of a better future from leading American Thinkers." This way I picked up the book to read it. How can I make America a better place for those that live here tomorrow?

Each Chapter is written by a different person on topics to answer the questions on how to make America a better place.

This book is written so that you can pick it up and read one chapter at a time or read it cover-to-cover. Along with the inspiring words are beautiful color photos.

This book was very inspirational, containing a lot of great ideas for the future! It's something that takes time to read and think about. Some sections were great, while some sections were odd. I'm looking forward to see what happens in the future, hopefully some of the sections of this book come true.

a collective survey from several innovative authors in regards to religion, politics, relationships and the impact all of these have on our lives and future- read! some authors are T. Moore, Utne, Chopra, Redfield and others...

[Lydia]

Marianne Williamson engaged a collection of "deep" and "forward" thinkers to give their vision of the United States in 2050. Think a Nation viewing itself as one community working for the collective good and spiritually in touch with itself.

[Laurie]

a collection of many spiritual teachers on why this is an extremely important time in history for spiritual change.

Just read the section “Transformation” by Vicki Robin, in the “ReWoven Fabric” chapter. What a beautiful vision of what life could be.
