Annotation,The Interdependence Reader is a collection of essays, speeches, historical documents and discussion questions on interdependence, the guiding principle for civic life in the 21st century.

Kennedy, Vaclav Havel, Kofi Annan, Benjamin Barber and many other distinguished authors and public leaders. A special section is included on Interdependence day, with practical suggestions on how schools, colleges, and civic, religious and cultural organizations throughout the world can celebrate Interdependence day on September 12.
