These three titles are shorter than the print and digital version of American Dreamers already on the market, and mix content from the original book with writing from the Medium community. As one of the early adopters of Medium.com, a new platform from the creators of Twitter, we wondered if Medium could change the way we make books. It allows for longer form story telling, combined with the fluidity of sharing and dynamism of community. We posted excerpts from American Dreamers as inspiration and members of the Medium community posted their ideas and responses. The themes of the digital books are, Tinkering (about the culture and identity of reinvention), Learning (how we continue to grow and how education is at the core of change), and Exploring (the ethics and values of space, geography and national adventure). Featuring authors: Claire L. Evans (YACHT), Dr. Cameron M. Smith, Jeff Chu (Fast Co.), John Maeda (RISD), Ani Zonneveld (Muslims for Progressive Values), Aaron S. Williams (former director of the Peace Corps), and many more.
