I believe this book may be one of the most important written in many years. The ideas are much larger than we normally see in business books. They aren’t tips, tools, or steps, but are in fact laws that govern individual, group and organizational behavior. The [case studies are] illustrations of organizations bringing out the best in people and in communities. These aren’t just companies making a profit, but companies doing well in the world, by any measure. Leaders would be well served to think about these laws and find ways to apply their insights.

As we move into the heart of the 21st century, it’s time for business leaders to ask what impact they want their career, and their entire organization to make. The future that’s already written about organizations is not the most ideal. We can do better, must do better. In striving for what’s possible, not just for what’s likely, this book can be a resource for generations to come.
