Gentle Action: Bringing Creative Change to a Turbulent World (9788895604039): F. David Peat: Books. This book should be required reading for policy makers, business people and politicians round the world - they might begin to wonder if it is occasionally better to refrain form action rather than intervene at all costs and exhaust themselves in the process. --Network Review, Journal of the Scientific and Medical NetworkGentle Action explores ways in which we can exercise more effective, creative and noninvasive action from the local to the international level. The book is packed with examples of ways in which individuals and groups have totally transformed economies, societies and situations by means of gentle and creative actions. It also highlights those far-too-many cases in which well-meaning attempts to help or to provide aid have gone disastrously wrong; wrong because the organizations involved were over rigid, failed to understand the complexities involved and operated from outside the system. An invaluable resource for everyone from CEOs, policy makers, community leaders, opinion makers, aid organizations, business groups, consultants and politicians as well as parents and indeed anyone who is trying to make a difference. --Inspire, Issue 21
