|

|
![]() | The Fifth Dicipline: The Art and Practice of the Learning Organisation by Peter M. Senge

![]() | Running on Emptiness: The Pathology of Civilisation by John Zerzan
Buy new: £6.10 / Used from: £4.99 The first half of the book is too esoteric for my taste and I don't totally agree with Zerzan's arguments. The second half is much better and concrete.

|

|
![]() | In Search of the Primitive by Stanley Diamond
Buy used from: £14.90 Despite some passages where Diamond spends a little too much time defining what anthropology should be, this book is truly wonderful and one of its kind. An absolute must-read.
