Future Wealth

In this book, the author stresses the need for a fundamental revolution in the way the world thinks about economics and organizes economic life. The new economics must be geared to the real needs of people: the key words for the economics of the 21st century, he argues, are "enabling" and "conserving". The book is aimed at those who are in any way concerned about the present state of the world, and in particular planners, economists, academics, business people and politicians interested in environmental issues, public health, poverty and Third World development.
