San Francisco, CA; Cincinnati, OH (PRWEB) July 18, 2006 -- Authors Jared Rosen and David Rippe have documented a major pop phenomenon called “The Flip,” which has quietly grown to a full-fledged movement over the last several years.

Rosen and Rippe detail two separate worlds; one upside down and one Right Side Up, and offer insights to master eleven key areas of life with over 200 actionable exercises and tips anyone can use to begin their own personal flip.

Popular futurist and bestselling author, Patricia Aburdene, stated, “The Flip is a blueprint for living a meaningful life today and thriving in the 21st century.”
