Holonomics

'This remarkable book distills the essence of the ideas and values taught at Schumacher College, and shows how these teachings can be applied, with many case studies of enlightened business. A powerful antidote to today's dominant culture.'
-- Fritjof Capra, author of The Hidden Connections and co-author of The Systems View of Life

'A manifesto for mindful living.'

'A must read for any forward thinking business.'
-- Alan Moore, author of No Straight Lines: making sense of our non-linear world, and, Designing for Transformation

'While great poets, artists and modern scientists intuitively see reality as relationships, economists, politicians, and business leaders fail to understand how parts and the whole relate in the world we inhabit. Holonomics presents a powerful mode of thinking, for a new, life-enhancing approach to human economic activity. I urge all economists, public officials and people in business to connect with this timely and important message.'
-- H. Thomas Johnson, author of Profit Beyond Measure, and Relevance Lost: The Rise and Fall of Management Accounting

'A timely, radical and deeply insightful book.'
-- Giles Hutchins, author of The Nature of Business

-- Stephan Harding, editor of Grow Small, Think Beautiful

'For those who think that we must choose between environmental well-being and economic stability, here is a book that challenges that division. The authors show how business leaders can move beyond narrowly materialistic, reductionist frameworks toward more creative, imaginative and holistic visions of our sustainable, economic future.'
-- Professor Ingrid Leman Stefanovic, author of Safeguarding Our Common Future: Rethinking Sustainable Development

'In Holonomics, the restructured knowledge which is shared will certainly help us - especially those in business with open minds -- to traverse this new age of knowledge and understanding of ourselves, our societies and our whole living planet.'
-- Dr. Roberta Simonetti, specialist in sustainable business and finance

'Holonomics conveys the necessary holistic approach to rethink the economic model in a new and innovative way towards the sustainability path, where life -- for people and organisations – does matter.'
-- Julio Bin, Sustainability and Sustainable Business Development adviser

'We are all looking for something to make us move together in a direction that we feel to be the correct one, and that long-lasting, profitable path that we may take is Holonomics.'
