Much has been written about neighborhoods as the organizing principle in community development. This is where concerns about quality of life are tangible and a sense of pride is easily established. As a consequence, initiatives designed to work at the neighborhood level have great potential to capture peoples' imaginations and sustain participation. Neighborhood initiatives are also attractive because they awaken a sense of community.The Livable Neighborhood program is based on a state-of-the-art understanding of what it takes to change individual and group behavior. It's easy to implement. It's enjoyable to take part in. Neighborhoods that follow the simple instructions will make themselves safer, healthier, quieter, prettier, friendlier, greener, more economical, and better places to raise kids. Its purpose is to help citizens take the steps they can on their own while at the same time interacting with local government as efficiently as possible.

<p>Empowerment builds on two decades of work of its authors working with thousands of people to help them create their heart's desire. It is based on the premise that our thoughts and beliefs create the conditions of our life; if we want to bring about changes in our life we need to change our beliefs. The book assists readers in doing this. It covers seven areas of life -- relationships, sexuality, money, work, body, emotions and spirituality. Over 50,000 copies of Empowerment have been sold since it was published in 1989.</p>
