[Read by Dana Hickox]

In this profound new book, Korten shares the results of his search for a story that reflects the fullness of human knowledge and understanding and provides a guide to action adequate to the needs of our time. Korten calls our current story ''Sacred Money and Markets.'' Money, it tells us, is the measure of all worth and the source of all happiness. Although many recognize that this story promotes bad ethics, bad science, and bad economics, it will remain our guiding story until replaced by one that aligns with our deepest understanding of the universe and our relationship to it. Offering a hopeful vision, Korten lays out the transformative impact adopting this story will have on every aspect of human life and society.

Book Description:
Every society is governed by stories―overarching cultural frameworks that determine what people value and how they understand and relate to the world and each other. Bestselling author David Korten argues that our current political, economic, and environmental crisis can be traced to fatal flaws in our current stories, and offers a new one that promises a better future.
About the Author:
David C. Korten worked for more than thirty-five years in preeminent business, academic, and international development institutions before he turned away from the establishment to work exclusively with public interest citizen-action groups. Korten earned his MBA and PhD at the Stanford University Graduate School of Business. He has written numerous books, including Agenda for a New Economy, the international bestseller When Corporations Rule the World, The Great Turning, and The Post-Corporate World.
