"What makes Sustainable Happiness such an important collection is the book's practicality. It helps readers understand ways they can make things better for themselves and their communities starting this very minute."
--David Brancaccio, Host, American Public Media's Marketplace Morning Report, and Co-Executive Producer, Fixing the Future
"I read this book with both sadness and gladness. Sadness to realize how far astray global culture has led us from the true sources of happiness, and gladness that there are so many wise and practical voices gathered in one book to guide us back to lives of real fulfillment."
--Margaret J. Wheatley, author of Leadership and the New Science
"A thoroughly enjoyable and thought-provoking collection of ideas. The vital ingredients have been captured and articulated soulfully--beginning from the 'ground' (the right view to find happiness) to the 'path' (the right actions to find happiness) so that you may get the 'fruit' (the result: happiness). Recommended reading for everyone."
--Karma Tshiteem, Secretary, Gross National Happiness Commission of Bhutan
"These stories of enjoyable forms of supportive local cooperation stimulated by wider individual frames of reference make concrete what 'sustainable happiness' means. Try it. It's easier than you may think."
--Ralph Nader, author and public interest advocate

--Mollie Katzen, chef and author of the Moosewood Cookbook
"Sustainable Happiness is a fine selection of thoughtful articles. You'll come away with a deeper understanding of how we can improve the quality of all of our lives while passing on a verdant planet to our descendants. I heartily recommend this book!"
--John de Graaf, author and cofounder of the Happiness Alliance
"The Sustainable Happiness volume delivers inspiration for your personal journey of joy and well-being as you navigate 'the pursuit of happiness' in a deeply troubled world. Read this book for the wisdom it contains. It will nourish your soul."
--Parker J. Palmer, educator and author of Let Your Life Speak and A Hidden Wholeness
"Finally, a book on 'the pursuit of happiness' that is not self-referential and small minded! Instead, it is honest, challenging, and invitational to a larger world beyond the small self. What a magnificent collection of writers and ideas!"
--Fr. Richard Rohr, OFM, founder of the Center for Action and Contemplation
"What the happiness movement needs now is actionable examples pointing the way for our future that are rooted in the 'us, ' not just the 'me.' Sustainable Happiness is the first book to answer that call."
--Laura Musikanski, author and Executive Director, Happiness Alliance
"Sustainable Happiness offers a gentle tap on the shoulder; an invitation to return to our deeper humanity, to a place that isn't so bogged down in daily chores, minute-to-minute texts, and a brain full of clutter. I loved it!"
--Dee Williams, author and tiny house builder (cofounder of Portland Alternative Dwellings)
"In Sustainable Happiness, YES! has offered us a rich buffet of facts that surprise, ideas that inspire, stories that touch our hearts, and much food for thought. And really, who doesn't want to be happy?"
--Lama Tsomo, author of the forthcoming book Why Is the Dalai Lama Always Smiling?
"The wealth of Sustainable Happiness grows out of the wisdom that has guided the beautiful growth of YES! initiatives--invariably, a celebration of ordinary people setting daily examples of courageous commoning, step-by-step, with infinite patience yet a necessary sense of urgency."
--Madhu Suri Prakash, writer and educator
"Sustainable Happiness blazes a trail into the brave new world of transforming extremely materialistic development models into ones that create true prosperity and happiness and of changing consciousness. A great book!"
--John Perkins, bestselling author of Confessions of an Economic Hit Man
"Modern society is a network of lures intended to create emotional dependencies: seduce and reduce 'humans'' to 'consumers.' Dig into Sustainable Happiness. Join the revolution of perception. Your happiness depends on it."
--Makana, musician, composer, and activist
YES! Magazine has been at the forefront of reporting on the Occupy Wall Street/99% movement that has spread all over the U.S. and around the world. Now the editors of YES! have pulled together outstanding reports and analyses of the who, what, when, where, why, and how of this movement – especially the ways it “changes everything” in creating a world that works for the 99% and not just the top 1%.
Occupy Wall Street protests have spread around the world, with a common slogan of “We are the 99%.” But there is a great deal of confusion and misperception about this movement. This book clarifies the who, what, when, where, why, and how of this movement. It provides profound insight into the movement’s power, messages, significance, methods, and impact. The editors of YES! Magazine bring together voices from inside and outside the protests to show how the meaning and impact of this movement are much bigger and more far-reaching than is being reported.
The central thesis of this book is “This Changes Everything.” The authors show how this movement changes (1) how citizens view themselves, (2) what citizens see is really going on in the world, (3) what is possible in creating a world that works for the many (the “99%”) and not just the few (the “1%”), and (4) how citizens can bring about changes they seek in their communities, nations, and the world.
