I'm hoping the book I've written with Dan O'Neill will help start a much-needed conversation about the limits to growth and economic alternatives, so please excuse the self-promotion...
Noam Chomsky and a group of prominent environmental scientists, ecologists, economists, and writers all agree (and even a handful of politicians too): Enough Is Enough is a timely book that tells an engaging story about the economy: specifically, how to change it so that people can meet their needs without undermining the life-support systems of the planet. If you (or your students) long for practical ideas to address the most profound environmental and social problems of our times, such as climate change and poverty, then I hope you'll take a look at Enough Is Enough: Building a Sustainable Economy in a World of Finite Resources. http://steadystate.org/enough-is-enough/ Thanks and best wishes, Rob -- Robert Dietz Author, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH - http://steadystate.org/enough-is-enough/ Editor, DALY NEWS - http://dalynews.org +1 541-602-3097
