I have the dubious task of representing my employer on the board of some NGO (“non government organization) that provides services to local public officials. If you have read my postings in the past you may have a sense that my personal views on issues are often at odds with those of my employer. This organization, however, was different in that they were not political. I could tell by some of the other board members that I am out numbered, but this organization is non-political.
A number of my recent book reviews were written decades ago. The odd thing about all of them has been how pertinent they are to the world we live in. Economics In One Lesson, written in 1946, seemed as if it was written to address our current economic woes. The 5000 Year Leap was written in 1981, but is based on teachings from the 1970′s and unveils the glories of our Constitution for many of us who learned very little about our founding documents other that memorizing a few pages.
We are committed to celebrate our differences and to respect individuals, each with their own personalities, backgrounds, beliefs, and ideas. The strength of our diversity combined with a dedication to a common purpose leads us to tremendous success.
