In the tradition of Octavia Butler, radical self-help, society-help, and planet-help to shape the futures we want.

Inspired by Octavia Butler's explorations of our human relationship to change, Emergent Strategy is radical self-help, society-help, and planet-help designed to shape the futures we want to live. Change is constant. The world is in a continual state of flux. It is a stream of ever-mutating, emergent patterns. Rather than steel ourselves against such change, this book invites us to feel, map, assess, and learn from the swirling patterns around us in order to better understand and influence them as they happen. This is a resolutely materialist “spirituality” based equally on science and science fiction, a visionary incantation to transform that which ultimately transforms us.

What humility and brilliance adrienne maree brown brings to this work if emergence. Aside from the beautiful narration, we are brought into a world of wild imaginings and real possibility.
For change workers and meaning makers and those prepared to change along with systems, an essential, welcome read, guide and partner.
Beautiful and humbling.

I'm halfway through and still not clear on the purpose or learnings for this book. I will try to struggle through. The number of quotes really dont work in audio, but would I expect work better on paper or e-reader. The quotes make it awkward, making it feel a little like a show and tell of all the other books the author has read.
