John O'Neill raised the possibility of sharing references on learning
organisations. I have enclosed a list of readings we prepared when writing
a discussion document on Schools as Learning Communities. Bear in mind that
it was prepared for (and from) an educational perspective. The discussion
paper is available on http://www.dse.unsw.edu.au
Another book that I am fnding fascinating at the moment and may be of
interest is Kevin Kelly's Out of Control.
