Reviews

Michael Albert is an important thinker who takes us beyond radical denunciations and pretentious analysis to a thoughtful, profound meditation on what a good society can be like. Howard Zinn


Michael Albert's accomplishments in his life and work have been truly remarkable . . . . This lively memoir . . . provides revealing and often surprising insights into the exciting history of the past forty years, in popular movements and the institutional structures that have sought to contain and undermine them, their success and failures, and the prospects for moving on. It is quite an achievement. Noam Chomsky


Remembering Tomorrowis the deeply engaging story of Michael Albert's evolution from frat boy to one of the world's premiere utopian thinkers. Not just a tale of the sixties, it is just as relevant today. Barbara Ehrenreich


| "It is to Michael Albert's everlasting credit that he has worked tirelessly to grapple with the very difficult questions of what a truly democratic economy might look like, and how it might work. Albert's thoughtful contribution deserves wide attention. Robert W. McChesney
