new tightly connected world."

want to understand how the world is changing, what's really
happening and how we can all find our way, this book could not
becoming at a better time."

long for."

confidence--to harness those changes to build businesses, spread
ideas, and make a better world."
--Paul Polman, CEO of Unilever "The nature and use of power is
changing rapidly, distributing broadly in unexpected channels. New
Power provides the practical tools to help us all understand this
shift. But it also draws out the big battle of our times--whether
all this new power will end up being used for good or bad."
--Craig Newmark, founder of Craigslist "Power is shifting as never
before, so New Power is addressing a vital issue for our times: how
to make the voices and choices of all, not just a few, count for
something. Plaudits to Heimans and Timms for their determination to
help shape the future, not just complain about it."

Power is a tour de force by two of the great mobilizers of the
first global generation."

any field."
