Lappé has drawn the map that will get us out alive." --Greg Palast, author, The Best Democracy Money Can Buy "With the clear thinking, plain talk, and penetrating insight that we have come to expect from her work, Lappé confronts fundamental problems directly and constructively." --Noam Chomsky "Lappé is a pioneer in democratic thought and action." --Cornel West, University Professor of Religion, Princeton University "Extraordinary. A provocative and exciting new approach to reviving democracy." --Amy Domini, founder and CEO, Domini Social Investments "Democracy's Edge is an exciting and hopeful account of the rebirth of a living American democracy as people connect with each other around the country to solve problems and build a better society." --Jim Wallis, author, God's Politics, and convener and editor, Call to Renewal
