Author: Lappe, Frances Moore

The author of the three-million-copy best-seller Diet for a Small Planet unearths the root of today's global crises. Because we are creatures of the mind, says Lapp', it is our mental "frame"- our core assumptions about how the world works - that determines outcomes. And our current dominant "frame"is now driving us toward disaster. Interweaving fresh insights, startling facts, and stirring vignettes of ordinary people pursuing creative solutions to global problems, Lapp' uncovers a new, empowering "frame"through which real solutions are emerging worldwide. 144 pp.
