Review Quotes
Gunderson and Cochrane have written one of the most significant volumes of this decade. In what feels as a broken, bent and collapsing world, they remind us that beauty, hope, compassion and connection are not only possible but, together, make for potent life-giving elixir! Emphasizing the need for us to be deeply accountable, they call upon to create a better world for our children by thinking radically and acting boldly. - Arvind Singhal, PhD, is Samuel Shirley and Edna Marston Endowed Professor of Communication at The University of Texas at El Paso and Director of Social Justice Initiative.
Taking Responsibility is a clear-eyed moral compass for responding to the environmental and social challenges of our age. Its pages are filled with wonder, hope and practical tactics for responding to injustices and harms. Keenly thoughtful, fascinating to read and filled with humility - this slim book has the gifted potential to guide us towards a better future. - Dr Gary Machlis, University Professor of Environmental Sustainability, Clemson University and author of Sustainability for the Forgotten.
