Synopsis
This is probably the most important section in the while catalog. With the times a'changin' as they are, we all need to better prepared for the uncertain changes ahead. The books in this section will give you a head start. In the 1970s, the late Karl Hess participated in a five-year social experiment in Washington D.C.'s Adam-Morgan neighborhood. Hess and several thousand others labored to make their neighborhood as self-sufficient as possible, turning to such innovative techniques as raising fish in basements, growing crops on rooftops and in vacant lots, installing self-contained bacteriolocial toilets, and planning a methanol plant to convert garbage to fuel. There was a newsletter and weekly community meetings, giving Hess and others a taste of participatory government that changed their lives forever.
