The Unconscious Civilization

A "must read" for any social scientist or socially responsible individual. Better still, this book should be mandatory reading for all technocrats, MBA's and politicians. An easy read which provides a solid understand of large scale dynamic that can be changed by individual behaviour and attitude.

John Ralston Saul's book capturing the massey lecture series is incredibly thought provoking. One of the foremost thinkers in Canadian society, he captures the exodus from a philanthropic approach to life to a more competitive and self-indulgent lifestyle that people now lead.
