Support For Wright's Theories
Wright's radical ideas have been endorsed by academics such as Richard Heinberg, Prof. Colin Groves, Prof. Ashok Gangadean, Prof. Robert Greenway, Dr. Michael Winkelman, and the psychiatrist Darold Treffert. Non-academic supporters for Wright's theories include the founder of the Eden Project, Tim Smit; former Police Superintendent Peter Bennett; and author and raw foodist, David Wolfe. A second edition of Wright's book was published in February 2008 by Lulu.com. It includes a foreword by Dr. Dennis McKenna that offers further support for Wright's theory.
Wright is a member of Courvoisier's 'The Future 500', which is "an exclusive network of pioneers, entrepreneurs and revolutionary spirits from the arts, social enterprise, business, science, gastronomy, fashion and beyond".

Famous quotes containing the words support, wright and/or theories:
“The partridge and the rabbit are still sure to thrive, like true natives of the soil, whatever revolutions occur. If the forest is cut off, the sprouts and bushes which spring up afford them concealment, and they become more numerous than ever. That must be a poor country indeed that does not support a hare. Our woods teem with them both.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The life-fate of the modern individual depends not only upon the family into which he was born or which he enters by marriage, but increasingly upon the corporation in which he spends the most alert hours of his best years.”
—C. Wright Mills (1916–1962)
“The two most far-reaching critical theories at the beginning of the latest phase of industrial society were those of Marx and Freud. Marx showed the moving powers and the conflicts in the social-historical process. Freud aimed at the critical uncovering of the inner conflicts. Both worked for the liberation of man, even though Marx’s concept was more comprehensive and less time-bound than Freud’s.”
—Erich Fromm (1900–1980)
