Michael N. Nagler is one of the most respected scholars and defenders of non-violence in the world. He is a professor emeritus of classical and comparative literature at the University of California, Berkeley. In the same university, Nagler launched the “Peace and Conflict Studies Program”, which is now one of the most extensive of its kind in North America.

He is also the founder and president of The METTA Center for Nonviolence and the author of Our Spiritual Crisis and The Search for a Nonviolent Future, the latter of which won the American Book of the Year award in 2002 and has been translated into several languages. His articles have appeared in the Wall Street Journal and elsewhere, and he has been speaking and writing about nonviolence, meditation, and world peace for more than 30 years. Nagler is the Chairman of the Board of Directors of “PeaceWorkers” and one of the pioneer founders of “Nonviolent Peaceforce”, which is now a global provider of non-violent peacekeeping services in Mindanao, Sri Lanka, South Sudan, and many other dangerous areas, to preserve human life and promote human rights. Has acted or is acting as an impartial third party committed to non-violent methods.

However, Michael Nagler’s main preoccupation today is the METTA Center for Nonviolence. He founded this center in 1982 along with others. METTA produces books, videos, blog posts, and other content, as well as creating and managing the Roadmap Project for a Comprehensive Nonviolence Strategy.

You can listen to his book “The Nonviolence Handbook” translated into Farsi by Dr. Farhad Meysami on the Bibliocast podcast.

Marc-Uwe Kling, born in Stuttgart in 1982, is a German songwriter, cabaret artist, and author. Having learned to play the guitar and piano as a child, he immigrated to Berlin at the age of twenty, where he studied philosophy and theater at the Freie Universität Berlin.

Since 2003, Kling has been performing in cabaret shows (a combination of stand-up comedy, music, and theater) and poetry slams. Kling’s success and fame are mostly due to the Kangaroo Trilogy: The Kangaroo Chronicles in 2009, The Kangaroo Manifesto in 2011, and The Kangaroo Revelations in 2014.

The audiobooks of these works, which were recorded during Kling’s live performances in front of an audience, became extremely popular, to the point where Kling released a portion of Kangaroo adventures that was not included in the final version of the trilogy in the form of the book “Strange Adventures of Kangaroo” in 2018. While the Kangaroo trilogy consisted of a series of stand-alone events in separate chapters, in 2017 Kling published his first novel, an anti-utopian futuristic science fiction comic, which was also a success for Kling. The second part of QualityLand “QualityLand 2.0: Kiki’s Secret” was also released in 2019.
