"When renowned futurist Barbara Marx Hubbard first issued this groundbreaking call to action she was confronting the state of affairs at the momentous turn of the twenty-first century. Her clear-eyed, inspiring, and wide-sweeping vision of a possible - and essential - global renaissance at the new millennium earned her devotees in a variety of disciplines, from Marianne Williamson and Gary Zukav to Eric Utne and former United Nations Assistant Secretary General Robert Muller.
