  The Philosophy of Social Ecology...

  Murray Bookchin, Todd McGowan

  What is nature? What is humanity's place in nature? And what is the relationship of society to the natural world? In an era of ecological breakdown, answering these questions has become of momentous importance for our everyday lives and for the future that we and other life-forms face. In the essays of The Philosophy of Social Ecology, Murray Bookchin confronts these questions head on: invoking the ideas of mutualism, self-organization, and unity in diversity, in the service of ever expanding freedom. 
   
   
   
  Refreshingly polemical and deeply philosophical, these essays take issue with technocratic and mechanistic ways of understanding and relating to, and within, nature. More importantly, they develop a solid, historically and politically based ethical foundation for social ecology, the field that Bookchin himself created and that offers us hope in the midst of our climate catastrophe.

  You already know what happens when dinosaurs and meteoric change come together. 
  Rapid change also impacts the digital world, and the choice for leaders is transformation or extinction. But adaptation can be challenging. Human teams and managers tend to resist change, and it takes effort and ingenuity to convince them to grow. 
  In Working with Dinosaurs, Marcus East, a leader in the digital technology industry for over two decades, shows other top executives how to disrupt outdated systems and mindsets and embrace new tech worlds like cloud computing and AI, so they can become next generation leaders of digital and tech transformation. 
  Ditching the dinosaurs means more than switching out old software and skills. It means re-envisioning the structure of an organization. It means creatively changing roles, capabilities, and culture. It means inspiring teams to move forward. 
  Digital transformation is here. Evolve to lead it.
