"The Revolution will not be Televised," by Joe Trippi, campaign manager for the Dean for America campaign. While its politics are suspect, the book delivers on its promise to "show how power, in the hands of all of us, changes everything."
"This is the story of how Trippi’s revolutionary use of the Internet and an impassioned, contagious desire to overthrow politics as usual grew into a national grassroots movement and changed the face of politics forever. But it’s also more than that. "It’s about how to engage Americans in real dialogue, how business leaders, government leaders, and anyone else can make use of the most revolutionary idea to come along since man first learned to light a fire. No … not the Internet. Or computers. Or telecommunications. "Democracy. "From his behind-the-scenes look at Dean’s shocking rise and fall to his 'seven inviolable, irrefutable, ingenious things your business or institution or candidate can do in the age of the Internet that might keep you from getting your ass kicked but then again might not,' Joe Trippi offers an inspiring glimpse of the world we are becoming."Bonus: Sample Gil Scott Heron's song that inspired the title here. Lyrics here.
