5.0 out of 5 stars excellent guide for anyone attempting to change public, October 7, 1997
By 
"helzphar" (Montgomery, AL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Rapids of Change: Social Entrepreneurship in Turbulent Times (Hardcover)
I received this book as a review copy years ago in a newspaper office, and it has served in good stead through careers in government and consulting. "There is no shortage of money, only different priorities...You can't teach a person anything unless he already knows it (but lacks the confidence to act on change.)" This book is a bible and a comfort to those trying to effect change and enlighten large or small groups . I have purchased several copies for friends over the years.

By A Customer
This review is from: The Rapids of Change: Social Entrepreneurship in Turbulent Times (Hardcover)
I like his ideas as the quality of life is very important, life must not get too fast. There needs to be time to savour the environment, the beauty and the tides of life. .
