His fourth book, An Unauthorized Biography of the World, explores similar recovery projects in several countries. His latest book, Our Way to Fight, explores the lives, actions and risks of grassroots peace and human rights activists in Israel-Palestine. It is published by Pluto Press (international edition), Between the Lines (Canadian edition) and Lawrence Hill Books/Chicago Review Press (US edition). Michael Riordon also leads courses, workshops and seminars for community organizations, trade unions, schools, colleges and universities.
