Government did not create our social problems and it can't solve them for us. This book explores in detail the who and how of real social change. The Real Change-Makers: Why Government Is Not the Problem or the Solution is based on a straightforward premise: it is everyday Americans who have always been the real change-makers and whose efforts are now more necessary than ever given the financial squeeze that local, state, and federal governments confront. In this provocative and timely book, Brown explains why solutions to social problems won't come from just more litigation, more legislation, more regulation, or more funding. His focus is not upon theory but everyday social practices—pursuing health care beyond the doctor's office, educating young people beyond the school zone, and pooling resources in new ways that take into account what Americans own, what they know, and what free time they have. Despite living in an age of media distraction, this book calls on citizens to renew their social attention, self-organize, and tackle the social problems that plague us. Most important, it is a book that leads the way to our future.

Our one-leader-at-a-time past has given way to a present reality where everyone has the potential to lead in every aspect of life. We all have at our fingertips the tools of change that were once available to just a few - and The shift from one-leader-at-a-time to everyone-leading-in-every-moment has created a changemaker effect on society. Change is no longer linear and faster, it's explosive and omnidirectional. THE CHANGEMAKER PLAYBOOK will show you how to thrive in every aspect of today's transformed societal landscape. A tutorial on the principles of empathy-based ethics and co-creative teamwork, THE CHANGEMAKER PLAYBOOK is as much a leadership handbook as it is a guide to personal achievement. Based on the author's discoveries about leading in change from front-edge thinkers - business and social entrepreneurs, educators, media thought leaders and youth changemakers - who distinguish themselves by putting their bold ideas and entrepreneurial capacities to work for the good of all, readers can apply the principles in this bookto every aspect of their lives. This book is less about getting ahead and more about getting along - because in the world we have entered, this is the central principle underlying the new success formula.
