{"product_id":"planet-pragmatism-the-new-path-to-prosperity","title":"Planet Pragmatism: The New Path to Prosperity","description":"Planet Pragmatism is a bold, clear-eyed call to action in an era of complexity, division, and climate crisis. In his fourth book, award-winning author and sustainability strategist Mark C. Coleman offers a grounded manifesto for meaningful progress—one rooted not in idealism, but in what he calls common sense for the common good.\nDrawing on more than 25 years of advising businesses, governments, and emerging leaders, Coleman lays out a practical philosophy he calls Planet Pragmatism—a mindset that blends principled leadership with realistic action. This isn’t a book about extremes. It’s about what works.\nThrough powerful storytelling, deep observations, and real-world analogies—from rare bird eggs on high wires to dragons born from broken systems—Planet Pragmatism challenges readers to rethink prosperity, leadership, and progress itself. At its core, this book is a playbook for how individuals, organizations, and entire societies can lead with clarity, courage, and conscience in uncertain times.\nWhether you’re a business leader, student, policymaker, or simply someone tired of watching the world spin its wheels, this book is your blueprint for moving forward. No gimmicks. No empty promises. Just honest, urgent, sustainable change.\nInside Planet Pragmatism, you’ll discover:\nWhy prosperity is not guaranteed—and why it must be earned, together\nHow to reduce the “noise” in your life and lead with conscious self-awareness\nThe real cost of extremism and the urgent need for balanced leadership\nWhy slaying the dragon is never the end of the story—and how to prevent it from growing back\nHow the “lens” through which we see the world shapes what we believe, and what we ignore\nA simple truth: Overthinking delays action—and action, even imperfect, is the only way forward\n“Democracy, capitalism, freedom, and independence—none of these ideals are guarantees of prosperity or privilege. The privilege they afford is the right to pursue them, day in and day out.”\nPlanet Pragmatism is the book for this moment: sharp, honest, and relentlessly focused on what’s possible. If you’re ready to stop arguing and start acting, Coleman hands you the tools. The rest is up to us.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1958233439\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1958233439.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Coleman, Mark C\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book has little sign of wear or use  \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Blue Vase Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43333574033469,"sku":"BVV.1958233439.VG","price":13.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/1958233439-0.jpg?v=1783635488","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/planet-pragmatism-the-new-path-to-prosperity","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
