Just on that point too, there are several e-books now published on Open Space including two collections of stories: one by Raffi (Living Peace<http://www.archive.org/details/LivingPeaceTheOpenSpaceOfOurLives>) and one by Holger Nauheimer (New Stories from the Field<http://www.twine.com/_b/download/12pzzwv2k-2cy/b0bsl79jx59rwtw7lr978psshbdk7tsxlb1w4wlpmfhprmt/12/pz/zw/v2/k-/2c/y/b0bsl79jx59rwtw7lr978psshbdk7tsxlb1w4wlpmfhprmt/OSStoriesfromthefield.pdf>) as well as my The Tao of Holding Space<http://www.archive.org/details/TheTaoOfHoldingSpace>, which is a kind of deep meditation on the practice of OST facilitation.
None of these are peer reviewed or published by a publishing house, but they were compiled and released in the spirit of the User's Non-Guide, and they were prepared with a lot of thought. they're good reads too and I think worthy additions to the field. in fact the free, online library of e-books on Open Space is pretty impressive when you add all of Harrison's manuscripts into the mix as well.
