We are a group of progressive individuals who have pooled our knowledge and resources to create this website. With respect to the enormity of the task of providing good reading on such an ambitious scale, we regard the site as more a work in progress(ive) than a finished product.

What do we want?

To change the world, no less. Knowledge is power, and we hope to provide you with the words to use as weapons to wield that power. Will globalisation make the poor rich or the rich filthy? Why is there conflict in Congo? Can Palestinians and Israelis ever be friends? Is the West's relationship with the Third World based on ignorance or arrogance?

We try to guide you towards the most interesting and telling accounts. To help you dispel myths and overcome stereotypes in the search for answers. With awareness comes understanding – and momentum for change. Read, learn, act.

Oh, and we want you to buy all your books, CDs, etc through our website so that we can make this resource better and better.
