Customer Reviews

This is a dynamic,insightful,motivating book.

A real eye-opener! I was so astonished to find that there is a 'real and present danger'. After reading this book I am better able to prepare for the coming 'adventure'. I applaud the authors and editors for their vision and expertise at presenting it to us in lay terms I am able to comprehend...A must read for everyone YOU care about...Thank you, Judy Laddon *****

Mind and heart expanding

The articles in this book help put the technical Y2K problem in human context. I realize that things I have always taken for granted are choices society made in the past. The authors inspired me to consider what choices we are making now for our future. A must read for those looking beyond the narrow technical problem of Y2K to its possible implications on society.

It addresses my concerns and offers a clear path of action.

This is exactly what I have been waiting for. I knew the general course of action that a community needed to take, but I wasn't clear on how to get the ball rolling. One of the most marvelous concepts in this book, and one that we need to stress to others, is that the "individual preparedness" approach is doomed to fall short. This book covers the need for community action, and gives concrete direction to get things going. I am confident that our community is capable of rallying together, and a simple citizen like myself, and you, can initiate the process.

Excellent introduction to the enormity of y2k

How to talk to other people about y2k is a problem, as so often the response is denial. I've been giving those I love this book (I ordered in bulk). I've been getting good feedback. The emphasis is on connecting with what's really important in our lives, with our deepest values and with each other. As several articles stress, getting to know your neighbors may be the most important thing you do. The book prepares us for the kind of change in the way we view the world and our place in it. Change is always scary, but the way these potential upheavals are presented gives us a sense of being part of something exciting and spiritually uplifting

The Best Book on How to Think about Y2K

As the Millennium approaches, we will hear more and more about the Millennium "bug" or "bomb." Depending on our perception of how it could affect us, we will either look into it, or ignore it, or perhaps ignore it until we realize just how this might affect not only us, personally, but our community, our country and the planet. The book was put together quickly, but very thoughtfully. It is a wake up call, an inspiration, an encouragement to get more people to think about what could happen and do something that will help to create a positive future. So, if you don't know what to think about Y2K- this is the book to read. If you do understand it, this is the book to share with others who don't get it, yet.
