For more on bell hooks’ idea on living in a love ethic, that Nkem mentions, you can read All About Love: New Visions, where love is posited as "an ethic of care" that calls upon us to engage deeply with our own growth and the growth of others, urging us towards the highest expression of our humanity.

For more on Sam Kaner’s Diamond Participation model and the “Groan Zone” you can read: Facilitator's Guide to Participatory Decision-Making by Sam Kaner. It is designed to be accessible and applicable for a wide audience, not just professional facilitators. It offers insights and tools that are valuable for anyone involved in group dynamics and decision-making processes, including team leaders, community organizers, educators, and even individuals looking to improve their collaborative skills in personal or volunteer settings.
