An exploration of comprehensivity—the ability to understand our worlds broadly and deeply—and how groups of citizens can collaborate to build a more adequately macro-comprehensive and micro-incisive understanding of our complex civilization. Drawing on Buckminster Fuller's vision, this book offers guideposts for a new tradition of inquiry and action aimed at fostering better understanding between people, improving collective intelligence, and helping humanity become more robustly adaptable to an uncertain future.
