 '''''The Starfish and the Spider: The Unstoppable Power of Leaderless Organizations''''' is a 2006 book by [[Ori Brafman]] (author of the 2010 book ''Click: The Magic of Instant Connections'') and [[Rod Beckstrom]]. It is an exploration of the implications of the rise of [[decentralized]] organizations such as [[Grokster]] and [[Wikipedia]]. The book contrasts them to centralized organizations, such as ''[[Encyclopædia Britannica]]'', using compendia of knowledge as examples. The [[spider]] and [[starfish]] [[analogy]] refers to the contrasting biological nature of the respective organisms, starfish having a decentralized neural structure permitting [[Regeneration (biology)|regeneration]].
 
 In addition to giving historical examples of decentralized organizations such as [[Alcoholics Anonymous]] and the [[Apache]]s and analyzing their nature in contrast to centralized organizations, the book considers conflict between centralized and decentralized organizations, including the "If you can't beat them, join them" solution of creating hybrid organizations such as [[Citizendium]].{{Citation needed|date=August 2007}} A chapter towards the end of the book explores the concept of the "sweet spot", the optimal mix of decentralized and centralized attributes.
