The Natural Organization

My friend Robert Paterson, one of the most provocative thinkers I know, has been publishing a fascinating series of posts, "The Natural Organization," on his blog. If you've been influenced by the critiques of industrial agricultural by journalists such as Michael Pollan in "The Omnivore's Dilemma" or Eric Schlosser in "Fast Food Nation," then you should definitely read Rob's blog: He takes these ideas about our food system and uses them to help explain what does and doesn't work in all forms of human organization, especially when confronted by the need for dramatic change.
