No criticism intended of course!  (Having to understand a long sentence
to read it out loud properly meant deep reading for me, which was
good!)

It's just that I think the book was written to be read, not spoken -
the reader's eyes can and do go back and forth to capture the nested
concepts.

So this lead me to think how would a book with shorter sentences be
like.  It would be a different book, perhaps for a different audience
or for a different way of absorbing the ideas.

At the back of my mind lurk a couple of questions:
- what would a book (on Peace) for children be like?  Would it appeal
to other ages as well?  Could a 15 page booklet be written?  Would it
make any sense at all?
- how young can participants be in an Open Space gathering?  What
happens if people learn (use) OS when they are very young?

So thanks for your comment on "long" sentences!

Lucas
