The Guardian Column
Today is just a quick one as I'm under a lot of time pressure this week with the book officially coming out next Tuesday. Also on Tuesday, 1st June @ 2pm, I am doing a live one hour Q&A session on the Guardian online (it will be promoted on their homepage from about 12.45pm onwards, so follow the link from there on the day). It'll be a perfect chance to ask me any question you want, and allow everyone else to read my responses.

What does 'good' mean?
Even the concept of a moneyless society - let alone the prospect of it being realised - is intellectually and emotionally overwhelming for the vast majority of people. Which is surprisingly unsurprising, given that for over 90% of Homo Sapiens time on the planet, we lived exactly that: moneyless. Nevertheless, it's understandable, as it has now become a 180 degree shift in current perspective and outlook; a completely new lens through which to view the world.
