John Whitehead's book is a comprehensive guide to America's cultural and political malaise. While this book is a powerful rebuke of those who abuse power, Whitehead places the ultimate responsibility for restoring America to its rightful place as a bastion of freedom and justice precisely where it belongs: with the American people. Whitehead has no faith in either political party, and this is certainly not a book designed to fire up partisan true believers and party hacks. Liberals and conservatives alike will both hate and love Whitehead's critique of American society. And the average American will find Whitehead's blistering critique of power refreshing for its non-partisan slant. Unlike other critiques, however, this book does not leave a foul aftertaste. Whitehead's faith in the underlying decency and power of the American people is refreshing, and he leaves you feeling empowered rather than cynical. The spirit of America is still alive, and this book is a good place to start for any American who wants to help revive it.

This book is amazing. John Whitehead shows how each of us can change America so that it will continue to be an example for the entire world.

The Change Manifesto was validating in that most of the ideas were obvious and I have been dwelling on the topics for some time.
Some of the Change ideas are good ones and valid yet too late for actualization, unfortunately. A good, simple read to cross check ones views.
