This book is essential reading for researchers of commons, leadership practitioners, and non-profits working towards a more ethical, equitable, and just world.
There is presently a view that accessible technologies offer an inclusive and humanistic expression of technology. They do. But that is not all. Accessible technologies offer more than this: they contain within them lessons on transformational leadership.
