"Framebreak revivifies my faith that something original, articulate, seminal, and radical can be written about the fate of human isntitutions. This book is all of that." —Warren Bennis, university professor and distinguished professor of business administration, School of Business Administration, University of Southern California, and author of An Invented Life: Reflections on Leadership and Change

"Framebreak proposes a holistic approach to business built around humanitarian and moral principles.... Should be read by senior managers who are seeking ways to broaden the vision of the organization, especially in areas of human resource development, global considerations, and moral and ethical behavior."

``Captivating work.... Intriguing.''

``If business people and professors can reflect on the New Age message of this work, radical changes in the way managers conduct organizations could result.''
