The era of collective intelligence has begun in earnest. While others have written about the wisdom of crowds, an army of Davids, and smart mobs, this collection of essays for the first time brings together fifty-five pioneers in the emerging discipline of collective intelligence. They provide a base of tools for connecting people, producing high-functioning teams, collaborating at multiple scales, and encouraging effective peer-production. Emerging models are explored for digital deliberative democracy, self-governance, legislative transparency, true-cost accounting, and the ethical use of open sources and methods. See also INTELLIGENCE FOR EARTH: Clarity, Diversity, Integrity & Sustainability, and THE OPEN SOURCE EVERYTHING MANIFESTO: Transparency, Truth, & Trust.
