Description
By: Olli-Pekka Heinonen
How can we ensure that future generations enjoy the miracle of life? Learning as if Life Depended on it is a work of planetary reckoning by the Director General of the International Baccalaureate, Olli-Pekka Heinonen. Informed by his statesmanship and Finnish cultural heritage, Heinonen explains why the root cause of global crises is the failure to perceive the ideas we live and work with. Heinonen offers a four-part journey through our current predicament, the illusions we live by, our untapped potential, and transformative pathways. Education, he argues, must now become a collective act of reorientation.
