A few days ago we announced the release of Worldchanging: A User’s Guide for the 21st Century, the new book from the Worldchanging crew (of which I am the Managing Editor and Jill F. is a contributing writer). Since then the book’s gotten great reviews in the New York Review of Books and BusinessWeek.
Tomorrow morning, Wednesday November 1, we’re trying to mobilize a grassroots effort to get this thing to #1 on Amazon by asking everyone who is intending to buy a copy (and those who didn’t know they were intending!) to do so at 11:11am Pacific time.
Good!
I’ll try to help by spreading the news and I’ll pay a visit to Amazon.
My best regards.
I am so impressed!!!! YAY! I am totally down for 11:11 a.m. pt CONGRATS and thanks for being wonderful…happy halloween & november
Ok – so the big book with the extra cardboard sleeve being hawked to us to buy on Amazon is going to save the world – because it looks so cool? How about you start with your own publishing and distribution practices. Ironic that the first thing you see is a diatribe against mango baggage titled “Buy Local.”
I buy far less important books every day. Literally. I’m on my way to Amazon now!
Most books have a plasticized cover, Brad, which is not even recyclable, but this book is made out of 100% recycled paper and offset with wind. Go read about it. How about you start with knowing what you’re talking about?
This is an amazing book. I’m going to buy another copy now.
It’s Number One…. in the Science Category and Number 13 Overall as of this post
Ordered mine last night, with Cradle to Cradle.
I ordered mine a week ago before they were available. It arrived today much to my delight, and though I haven’t had the chance to read through it yet, it looks quite fantastic.
buy buy buy!
I pre-ordered mine and received it yesterday. What a great contribution to bookshelves everywhere! Congrats on producing an informative resource with true character.
