About this title

Synopsis

Bottom-up is a way of life and a way of doing business. The Bottom-Up Revolution picks up where Malcolm Gladwell’s Tipping Point left off, describing an emerging cultural phenomenon with deep biological and evolutionary underpinnings.

It is a how-to book for businesses, leaders, organizations, activists, and individuals, cracking wide-open humankind’s biggest trend in seven million years. By understanding the roots and implications of “bottom up” and “top down” you’ll be better able to tap the incredible power of this trend, as the billionaire founders of Craigslist, Google, Facebook, and Twitter, and political revolutionaries have done.

It includes interview excerpts with Twitter founder Jack Dorsey, Craigslist founder Craig Newmark, Fritjof Capra, Frans de Waal, Ann Marie Slaughter, Joseph Nye, Naomi Klein, Nicholas Carr, Riane Eisler, George Lakoff, Douglas Rushkoff, Robin Chase, Darcia Narvaez, Dennis Kucinich, Tim O’Reilly, Mike Medavoy, and John McKnight.
