Description
1.
"Grassroots Economics unveils a revolutionary economic model rooted in nature and ancestral wisdom. Drawing from real-world community resilience, it explores how resource pooling—mirroring mycorrhizal and human social networks—creates sustainable abundance. A transformative guide for activists, ecosystem stewards, technologists, economists, and changemakers seeking decentralized, cooperative, and regenerative resource coordination for a thriving future. This book is not an answer, but an invitation by the author—an invitation to explore new (and old) ways of coordinating resources, restoring trust, and creating economies that serve the well-being of all."
2. Monneta:
"In his new book Will Ruddick describes different forms of resource coordination.
His Field Guide begins by looking at how fungal networks and social systems naturally coordinate resources in ways that are symbiotic and resilient. Will Ruddick explored e.g. in Kenya how “pools of commitments” can replace or complement money, uniting people around shared purpose. He recognized that each of us holds seeds of abundance that only bloom when placed in a common-pool—an open space that thrives on reciprocity and trust. He wants his book to be not an answer, but an invitation - an invitation to explore new (and old) ways of coordinating resources, restoring trust, and creating economies that serve the well-being of all."
