About the Authors
Rob Dietz is the editor of the Daly News and the former executive
director of CASSE (Center for the Advancement of the Steady State
Economy).
Dan O’Neill is a lecturer in ecological economics at the University
of Leeds and the chief economist for CASSE.
“Humans seem to be intent on confirming the argument of biologist
Ernst Mayr that higher intelligence may be a lethal mutation. But
the grim prognosis is not inevitable. This lucid, informed, and
highly constructive book shows that with the will to act, solutions
can be found to build a steady-state economy geared to meeting
human needs.”
—Noam Chomsky
“Rob Dietz and Dan O’Neill bring clarity and style to their
impassioned and meticulous analysis, offering the way to a better
quality of life and a sustainable future for all.”
—Kate Pickett, Professor of Epidemiology, University of York;
cofounder, The Equality Trust; and coauthor of The Spirit Level
“Dietz and O’Neill create a remarkable vision—a world with enough
prosperity and happiness for everyone, not just for a few. This
book will restore your hope in the future and give you specific
things you can do to help!”
—Thom Hartmann, internationally syndicated talk show host and
author of twenty-four books
