Got it!  They didn't have it under simply "Courage to  Lead".  Now my copy 
will magically appear at my door!

Subject: [Oe List ...] FW: Launch of  2nd Edition of Courage to Lead




The following is a  short article Richard and I wrote on the Launch of the
Courage to  Lead book.  Enjoy  

THE ICA CANADA    Courage  to Lead Book Launch
2012 marks the 50th year for the ICA.  We  celebrated the last 50 years by
attending ICA Canada’s Annual General  Meeting and the Launch of the Courage
to Lead second edition.  
We were met with wonderful smells from India as Mariam Gibson  had prepared
a gourmet selection of Indian dishes.  Old friends  and colleagues milled
with fresh young faces of folks who have  recently met the ICA.  What a
thrill to see such vitality.  
The launch was initiated by Jeanette Stanfield as she placed  Brian’s photo
on a table in the front of the room.  His  dedication to the creation of the
first edition was relived in  stories, jokes and memories.  We were reminded
that the initial  creation was born from the questions of board members  and
particularly from a young board member Shelley Cleverly who  felt
passionately the need to share the depths of the ICA commitment  to society
and a lifestyle of service.  
Shelley and Duncan  Holmes recounted their memories of Monday morning
meetings where  colleagues brainstormed common wisdom, read Brian’s writing
and  probed for clarity and insight.  The first version was published  in
2000 and seminars were launched in Toronto.  Over the years a  faculty has
grown up through the courses being offered publicly at  ICA and on a regular
basis through the University Health Network  which staffs several hospitals
in downtown Toronto.  A colleague  who had surgery in one of those hospitals
recently commented on how  caring she experienced the doctors, nurses and
maintenance  staff. 
Twelve young  faculty were on hand to enable us to encounter the twelve
chapters.  Independently, Richard and I both selected the chapter  on
Historical Involvement along with David Patterson, a long-time  colleague. 
In our time  together we explored the ‘passing’ of the baton from one
generation  to the next.  Perhaps this was what was most evident in  the
evening’s celebration that the vision of a baton of service and  life
abundant was being passed to a new generation.  We ended  the evening with
toasts and a group creation of a drawing which  claimed promises for The
Courage to Lead .
The original edition  captured the existential wisdom of thousands of
colleagues over  several decades of Order and movement life. The second
edition is the  same book made new.  Duncan Holmes in the forward of the
book  says: “We have worked to make the book more accessible, the  language
easier and the references more familiar. Sometimes we have  added more
current examples. I’ve heard people say that they didn’t  understand a
chapter the first time around. The second time, it was  “Wow! Now I get it.
What a powerhouse!” In this revised edition we  wanted to make the
powerhouse in each chapter visible on the first  read. “  Brian’s laughing
voice is still present.  There  are also the life stories of a new
generation willing to transform  themselves and build the new society. 
You’ll want to get your  copy and share it with the next generation.  The
best part is  that you can download an ebook or get a paperback from
iUniverse _bookstore.com_ (http://bookstore.com/) .  The paperback will  be 
printed in Canada, USA,
Great Britain or Australia depending on  the location of the order and
shipped around the world.  Or ask  your favorite bookstore to order it. 
Barnes and Noble is already  carrying  the 2nd edition of The Courage to
Lead, Transform  Self, Transform Society. On the cover of the 2nd edition,
you will  see geese flying in the formation of a wedge.  Hope you like it.
