A Few Words from the Editor
This issue of Thirteen to the Dozen includes pieces by Greg Palast, John Pilger, Michael
Chossudovsky, Naomi Klein, Christopher Booker, Kirkpatrick Sale and Paul Hawken, journalists
who are dedicating their working lives to illuminating the hidden ways of wealth and power. The
task of our age is to design strategies to divert the adventure of civilisation away from its
hyperexpanionist path of the past few hundred years towards a sane humane ecological future
where truth and justice prevail, and hope overcomes tragedy to allow people to live gracious and
honourable lives in pursuit of happiness and beauty.
