Author of When Corporations Rule the World, co-founder of Yes Magazine and the Positive Futures Network, David's newest book is The Great Turning, from Empire to Earth Cornmunity. Korten draws on evidence from sources as varied as evolutionary theory, developmental psychology, and religious teachings to make the case that "Earth Community" - a life-centered, egalitarian, sustainable way of ordering human society based on democratic principles of partnership - is indeed possible. He details a practical strategy for advancing a turning toward a future of as-yet-unrealized human potential.

The time is now…We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.
