CHANGING MAPS:
Governing in a World of Rapid Change
by Steven Rosell
 Changing Maps is a tightly reasoned, richly illuminating manuscript about how an open society can become a "learning society" and "come to judgment" on issues that affect every citizen.
Steven Rosell integrates the insights of Canadian public executives and a wise selection of outside thinkers, in a mix that stunningly demonstrates the best way for a sizable group to think together about their future. This book is a major event in a growing literature about what "the information society" will mean for governance in a democratic commonwealth.

It challenges leaders to look beyond immediate crises to develop new frameworks for policy making that are adjustable to circumstances and lessons learned. It is a welcome stimulus to thinking in this area.
