Apologies from the editor

Greetings Pronoiacs,

If you follow this site at all, you may have noticed that the posts have been lagging behind Rob’s weekly newsletter. The reason for this is that I took an unannounced paternity leave – my wife and I had our first child a few weeks ago, and my online life has fallen a bit behind. Such is the way of life with a newborn. 🙂

In the coming weeks, I will do my best to pick up the backlog and get us back on track. In the meantime, your patience is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

– your humble editor

In Search of the Miraculous

The 2008 Shift Report: Changing the Story of Our Future

“We are living through one of the most fundamental shifts in history — a change in the actual belief structure of Western society. No economic, political, or military power can compare with the power of a change of mind. By deliberately changing their images of reality, people are changing the world.”

— Willis Harman, Global Mind Change

The Uprising: An Unauthorized Tour of the Populist Revolt Scaring Wall Street and Washington by David Sirota

“This book engages in the nearly lost art of reporting to tell us what’s going on in the many places that the elite media can’t be bothered to look.” — Bill McKibben

“David Sirota is a clear-headed and principled hell-raiser for economic justice.” — Naomi Klein

“After so many decades of fake populism — of revolts by the wealthy, red-state fantasies, and stock-picking grandmas — could we finally be looking at the real thing?” — Thomas Frank
