The Challenge To Power identifies tactics that progressives . . . can use to initiate action against corporations, forcing them to act more responsibly across the globe.

—Medea Benjamin, co-founder of Global Exchange

There are only a handful of true pioneers in the world's socially responsible investment movement and John Harrington is clearly one. He is often called visionary, outspoken and radical. John has never been afraid to tell the brutal truth in the face of power and now he is telling the world.

—Carsten Henningsen, Chairman of Portfolio 21

With this book, Harrington continues his commitment to advancing socially responsible investing. His early SRI leadership in California helped shape the current shareholder advocacy policies of CalPERS and CalSTRS, the nation's first and third largest pension funds.

—Phil Angelides, Former California State Treasurer

A hard-hitting analysis of how our own money is being used to undermine our democracy. This book is a must read for anyone who has ever suspected that something has gone terribly wrong with the way things are run, but never could really understand what.

—Amy Domini, Domini Social Investment Fund
