The Regeneration Handbook

Reviews / Votes

This is a handbook for millions of us who have not given up on restoring health, sanity, vitality, and a higher moral purpose to our world - even with the dangerous head winds. It is a glossary of relevant ideas for regeneration activists. It is a compendium of projects that have worked. Don provides an analysis of where the movements for regeneration are, and what next steps can be. He is the kind of leader we need.

If you want to build a future that extends beyond the polycrisis currently gripping humanity, then regeneration should be your key search word. And your search lands here. This is the book to inform your personal and communitarian efforts as humans cease being fossil fools and transition into wise Earth stewards.

In The Regeneration Handbook, Don Hall illustrates how the great transition could be a bane, or if we look at it as a unique opportunity for transformation. Shared challenges demand shared solutions!

-Tom Llewellyn, executive director, Shareable


Many things about our future are murky - but one thing is clear, and that is that a rapidly changing planet is going to demand some rapid changes from all of us, in our communities and in our own selves. This book is a darned good place to start thinking through those transitions.

- Bill McKibben, author, The End of Nature


If you're feeling hopeless about our future, you've found the right antidote! With The Regeneration Handbook, Don Hall has done a brilliant job summing up the past couple decades of thinking on regenerative social change, and has written a clear, inspiring, and entertaining call to action.
