I feel like I am not familiar enough with the field to suggest books yet, but looking forward to read the next book selection

Hi all,

sorry for letting the past week fly by without any updates. I am now selecting the books using https://www.random.org/ to randomly select the 8 books that will be put to the votes. Poll coming soon! :)

@michelekipiel Could you add this book to the master list, out of which you do random selections:
- Capra & Mattei (2015), The ecology of law - Toward a legal system in tune with nature and community, Berrett-Koehler.

Toward a law framework for post-capitalism.

Hi @mikeh8 , the reading selection spreadsheet can be found here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZvZ_MLq1dAVBCY7-e9Iylg-qxWYqkcptjvOnkyOTeTA/edit?usp=sharing.

There are also descriptions for the books there as well which helps with selection.

Thanks Emi. I did discover the spreadsheet after I’d posted my query. Unfortunately, I don’t use resources that require a Google ID.

Hi @mikeh8, I added that book personally as soon as the list was created :) Such a great read!

If there are no objections, I can convert the spreadsheet to an Ethercalc document...
