description: Recession. Terrorism. Global warming. There's no doubt that countless dire crises consume the world. And yet, positive change is also all around us, under the media's radar. Here is evidence of history's true trend: a convincing picture of declining war, advancing health, equal rights, revolutionary technology, and more, including the surprising reasons why peace is unfolding. This powerful shift in perspective-not trite "positive thinking" but a realistic look at a hidden truth-is needed now more than ever. The Secret Peace isn't an excuse to pat ourselves on the back, but a powerful call to action to step up our efforts to spread peace to all corners of the earth. ... Esther Dyson, author of Release 2.0 and expert on emerging technology, says, "I love the thesis, and believe it. Jesse Richards makes the case forcefully. ... It cheered me up!"
