Reviews / Votes
iThis book is a powerful and much needed antidote to the widespread hopelessness about our global ecological crisis. Hazel Henderson uses her flawless systemic analysis, great eloquence, and her unique gift for provocative, yet disarming aphorisms to show us not only that the transition to a sustainable future is possible with existing technologies and conceptual models, but also that it is already well on its way.ioFritjof Capra, author of The Web of Life and The Hidden ConnectionsMore details
