1. Marien Michael, Essential Reading for the Future of Education (Syracuse NY: Educational Policy Research Center, 1970, 56 pages). Expanded to Alternative Futures for Learning: An Annotated Bibliography (EPRC, 1971, 223 pages).
2. Marien Michael, Societal Directions and Alternatives: A Critical Guide to the Literature (LaFayette NY: Information for Policy Design, 1976, 400 pages). Of special interest are the nine indexes, including Chronological Book Title Index, Index of 81 Titles for Our Present Society, Index of 63 Evolutionary Stage Theories, and Index of 206 Titles for Alternative Societies (none of which included “Sustainable Society,” now the most widely preferred and cited vision).
3. Gross Bertram M. (ed.), A Great Society? (NY: Basic Books, 1968, 362 pages). Essays from the Arthur F. Bentley lecture series at Syracuse University, by Daniel Bell, Kenneth Boulding, Peter F. Drucker, Herbert Marcuse, Hans Morgenthau, Alvin Toffler, etc. I had the distinct honor of being the very junior co-author to Gross of the introductory overview chapter, responding to questions provided by President Lyndon B. Johnson—a still unique White House-academic dialogue.
