Thom's Books
Thom Hartmann is an author and an innovator in the fields of psychiatry, ecology, and economics. Thom is a four-time Project Censored Award-winning, New York Times best-selling author and former executive director of a residential treatment program for emotionally disturbed and abused children. Thom has helped set up hospitals, famine relief programs, schools, and refugee centers in India, Uganda, Australia, Colombia, Russia, and the United States through the German-based Salem International program. Formerly rostered with the State of Vermont as a psychotherapist, founder of The Michigan Healing Arts Center, and licensed as an NLP Trainer by Richard Bandler. A guest faculty member at Goddard College in Vermont, he also synthesized the “Younger/Older Culture model” for describing the underpinnings - and possible solutions - to the world’s ecological and socio-political crises, suggesting that many of our problems are grounded in cultural “stories” which go back thousands of years.
Hartmann’s books have been written about in Time and many other magazines, he has been on NPR and BBC radio and CNN television (among others), mentioned on the front page of The Wall Street Journal, and has spoken to hundreds of thousands of people on five continents over the past two decades.
One of his books was selected for inclusion in the permanent collection of the Smithsonian for its “visionary use of information technology to produce positive social, economic, and educational change in medicine.” His book The Prophet’s Way led to an unsolicited invitation to a private audience with Pope John Paul II in 1998. His book The Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight led to a September, 1999 unsolicited invitation to spend a week with His Holiness The Dalai Lama at his home in Dharamsala, India, and inspired a web-based movie ("Global Warning") written and produced by Leonardo DiCaprio.

Allegretto with the Institute for Research on Labor & Employment.
Tune in when Thom will be asking his guests if the US is in danger with the “the bluff hand” McCain is playing in choosing Sarah Palin – former beauty queen, former TV sports anchor with minimal Governor experience To Vice Presidential Candidate.
Presidential scholars say she appears to be the least experienced, least credentialed person to join a major-party ticket in the modern era.
Time Magazine reported last month...John McCain appears to be a compulsive gambler addicted to the craps tables, and he is a high-roller who plays (sometimes in a private high-roller room) for a few thousand dollars at a time for long stretches of time, up to 14 hours by one account....
