A gripping story, the book focuses on movements built from the ground up, including India's movement toward independence under Gandhi; Poland's Solidarity strikes, which laid the foundation for the fall of communism; and the lunch counter sit-ins in Nashville, which turned our attention toward the beginnings of the civil rights movement.Hide synopsis

A gripping cavalcade of far-flung locations and history-changing crises, the book depicts how nonviolent sanctions--such as protests, strikes and boycotts--separate brutal regimes from their means of control. It tells inside stories--how Danes outmaneuvered the Nazis, Solidarity defeated Polish communism, and mass action removed a Chilean dictator--and also how nonviolent power is changing the world today, from Burma to Serbia. Studded with colorful characters--such as Leo Tolstoy and Mohandas Gandhi, Lech Walesa and the mothers of the disappeared in Argentina--the book is a companion to a new PBS series and a feature-length documentary now at film festivals worldwide.
