We want life to be less arduous and more
delightful.
We want to be able to think differently
about how to organize human activities.
Our book springs from these desires. It
explores a different way of thinking about life and about
how organizing might occur. Our primary question is: How
could we organize human endeavor if we developed different
understandings of how life organizes itself?
We ask this question for all of us, for
there is no one who is unaffected by the organizations we
humans have created. And we invite each of you into answering
this question. We are essential to each other's inquiry.
We welcome you.
