In John Hunter's school room, students fearlessly handle global problems and find out surprising alternatives by participating in his groundbreaking World Peace Game. These kids - from senior high school completely right down to fourth level, in universities both well funded and underresourced - undertake the assignments of politicians, tribal leaders, diplomats, bankers, and military services commanders. Through battles and discussions, standoffs and summits, they strive to resolve dozens of complex, apparently intractable real-world difficulties, from nuclear proliferation to tribal warfare, financial collapse to climate change. In World Peace as well as other 4th-Grade Successes, Hunter shares the intelligence he's gleaned from over 30 years instructing the World Peace Game. Here he reveals the concepts of successful collaboration that people of any get older can apply anywhere. His students show us how to break through misunderstandings, bounce again from inability, put our knowledge to use, and gratify our probable. Hunter offers not only a forward-thinking statement from the front lines of American education, but also a ample blueprint for a world that bends toward cooperation rather than issue. In such a deeply hopeful audiobook, a visionary educator shows us what the future can be.
