An October 23, 2014 review of Naomi Klein's This Changes Everything in the London Review of Books: http://www.lrb.co.uk/v36/n20/paul-kingsnorth/the-four-degrees Spoiler - Concluding sentences: Kahneman won a Nobel Prize for his work on the psychology of human decision-making, which may be why he’s so gloomy. ‘This is not what you might want to hear,’ he says, but ‘no amount of psychological awareness will overcome people’s reluctance to lower their standard of living. So that’s my bottom line: there is not much hope. I’m thoroughly pessimistic. I’m sorry.’ In other words, the truth doesn't set us free. Apologies if link doesn't open or if this was already posted.
