Steven Johnson – £7.99 UK, $9.75 – USA.
No not the christian network, but the theory of emergence. What is behind the word that now gets used by so many people as ‘emergent/emerging’ church.
One of the most influential books on ‘Emergent/Emergence’ Theory is by Steven Johnson, that seeks to explain the power of self-organisation, and how we see it in everyday life, and the cultural developments around us.
He also has a blog with open comments for interaction.

It’s a great book! I am trying to shape a presentation around the lessons that the church can learn from the self organisation of slime molds and ant collonies!
