The Holigent Solution: How to Win the Transition Race to Economic Security, Quality of Life, Peace and Sustainability or How I Hope My Children and ... Wonderful but Troubled and Endangered Planet

In this poignant, thoughtful, and innovative analysis and plan of action, A. Nicholas Frank and Elisa Frank, a father and daughter team of social thinker/innovators, propose a socioeconomic transformation. With the pillars of society crumbling (a failing economy and dysfunctional democracy), their focus is not criticism but reconstruction. The Holigent Solution serves as a blueprint to rethink and rearrange the way we live, work, commute, consume, maintain, and govern ourselves ? a community at a time. Modeling a socioeconomic system after Nature?s frugal self-organizing building code, as closely as humanly possible, is likely our only hope of creating a sustainable human world. To this end, the authors present a rational physical, social, and economic rearrangement through which economic justice, environmental sustainability, and quality of life can be secured.
