The Solutionary Way: Transform Your Life, Your Community, and the World for the Better

Forges a path away from polarization toward ethical problem solving and a more humane, equitable, and healthy society

Deep polarization in our society often prevents us from working collaboratively to solve the problems we face. Based on Zoe Weil's decades of work as a humane educator, The Solutionary Way offers an antidote to dysfunctional societal dynamics. It provides clear, achievable methods to bridge divides, address the root and systemic causes of seemingly intractable challenges, and create positive change.

Grounded in evidence-based optimism and illustrated with dozens of real-world examples, this invaluable resource includes:

• A guide to the primary components of a solutionary mindset—critical thinking, systems thinking, strategic thinking, and creative thinking

• A clear and comprehensive articulation of the solutionary framework based on the four I's (Identify, Investigate, Innovate, and Implement)

• A compelling argument for the MOGO principle – to do the most good and least harm for people, animals, and the environment

• An inspiring overview of emerging solutions to a variety of systemic problems

• The personal benefits associated with becoming a solutionary, from increased self-respect and a greater sense of meaning and purpose, to deeper compassion and reduced feelings of apathy and isolation.

This exciting and empowering book will appeal to a broad audience, including changemakers, activists, advocates for social and environmental justice and animal protection, business and political leaders, and anyone who yearns to contribute to a healthy, equitable, and humane world.
