"With the entry of the Obama Administration, progressives hope to see a new era dawn in American politics, but we won't get there with the same centrist, incremental approach we've tried in the past," said Barry Kendall, Co-Chair of the Progressive Ideas Network. "Now is the moment to take our government and our country in an exciting new direction. That's why we brought together the best progressive minds for this project – to Think Big."

The agenda laid out in Thinking Big is bold and ambitious, incorporating the ideas of such esteemed contributors as Van Jones, Dean Baker, Andrea Batista Schlesinger and Miles Rapoport. While the book does articulate modern progressive values, it also describes the clear action steps that leading progressive organizations will be taking over the coming months to support these values. It could not have come at a better time.
