Reviews

I love this book! At a time in which activism must urgently rise to be a much more effective tool for systems change, Mueller gives us a deeply researched yet practical reference book to methodically take activism from passion to impact.
Lisa Mueller is a scholar/activist, a scholar/activist who believes in evidence, who sees careful social science researchers as the crucial allies of social justice movements. Changemaker is chocked full of feet-on-the-ground evidence that can make pro-democracy, anti-racist, pro-women's rights activists more effective. I learned something useful - often surprising! - on every page.
This work delivers a much better alternative to activism than a 'one size fits all' approach. Dr. Mueller shows the necessary blend of personal connections and scientific approaches to address the issues of this world with the most successful outcomes.
Imagine you're an activist, passionate about making a difference in the world. You're dedicated, hardworking, and deeply committed to your cause. But, despite your best efforts, you feel like you're not making the impact you hoped for. You're not alone. Many activists and social movements struggle to translate their passion into real, tangible change. This book is for you.
