[OSList] A phenomenal new book by one of our own: Initiating and Inviting Generative Change

[Suzanne Daigle]

Purchased and received my copy a week ago (lovely and special). Started to
read and plan to sink into it over the holidays. How special when one of
our own shares her wisdom in the form of a book, with the collaboration and
support of a colleague and friend.  Bravo Tova AND Peggy!
