"As Newt Gingrich and Nancy Desmond point out, reform is a small word... and transformation an enormous one. The compelling evidence they muster here makes it clear that wholesale institutional transformation alone will ensure the continued vitality, perhaps even survival, of our nation. The battle-tested authors boldly offer an original yet pragmatic process to guide us, policy maker and practitioner alike, to transformation. But more important, as I see it, they make it clear that this enormous challenge is one which we must accept-and indeed embrace-immediately. I found myself simultaneously challenged, frightened and exhilarated by this masterful text."
--Tom Peters, author of In Search of Excellence

"At a moment when many of our institutions face a Katrina-like breadown, nothing could be more timely than Newt Gingrich's brilliant ideas about how to truly transform them."
--Alvin Toffler, author of Future Shock and the Third Wave

Newt Gingrich is a senior fellow at AEI. Nancy Desmond is CEO of the Center for Health Transformation and of the Gingrich Group, a consulting firm focused on transformation and chaired by former Speaker Newt Gingrich.
