Breaking down the Hierarchy, March 10, 2001
This review is from: The Partnership Way: New Tools for Living and Learning (Paperback)
If Riane Eisler's CHALICE AND THE BLADE (C&B) excited you (or if you're dying to read it), and you'd like to share it with others, this book is for you. Begin to break down the dominator paradigm by sitting in a circle with a bunch of friends or fellow travellers and working the exercises in this book.
THE PARTNERSHIP WAY provides nine "lessons" which guide a group through C&B. This path is structured so that the group follows it together, without relying on the "authority" of a "leader." The experience of covering this material in a "partnership way" is what they didn't teach you in school. Learning to work together without ranking ourselves is a skill that we lost thousands of years ago. This book presents an opportunity for those who would like to reclaim that skill.
