Hi, all,
The good news is that the book Getting to the Bottom of ToP is on track, working toward publication by October this year.
Ronnie Seagren, who is editing the book, suggests that each chapter should start with a quote that evokes the experience, essence or quality of the method in the chapter.
This group had really good suggestions earlier, so I thought you would be a good source for quotes.
I have quotes for the sections, but not for the chapters. What literary or poetic quotes would you suggest? They could be a line or two, or more if necessary. I need the source of the quote as well, as this book is partly intended for an academic audience I’ve thought of a couple of possibilities for the Participatory Strategic Planning chapter, for example, from posters we had for the Town Meetings.
