For forty years, Joanna Macy's activism has been rooted in introspection and spiritual connection to a living earth. She has written about Buddhism and translated Rilke. Five of her ten books were published since her 80th birthday, as her productivity and her passion have increased with age. She still lectures around the world and teaches in the SF Bay Area.

Today is Joanna's 90th birthday.

"The world is seemingly full of disconnected crises, but Rob Kall begs to differ. An exceptional pattern thinker, he connects a range of contemporary challenges through a framework of bottom-up solutions in a world dominated by top-down thinking. Mining extensive interviews with thought leaders and exploring an eclectic mix of leading-edge ideas, Bottom-Up describes a variety of latent and emergent characteristics of an evolutionary paradigm shift that's changing the world. Whether your focus is in business, leadership, activism, or organizations, Kall offers a practical conceptual map and toolset to engage the planetary evolution taking place all around us. If you want to make a difference and need inspiration for how to participate in this global transformation, there is plenty in this book to draw from."
