Reviews

'One of the shortest, sharpest, clearest and most compelling descriptions of the causes and cures of our environmental bankruptcy that I have ever read.' - Lloyd Timberlake, author of Environmental Politics for the 21st Century; 'A cure for narrow-mindedness, this provocative book should be required reading for politicians - and those who vote for them.' - Brian Czech, President, Center for the Advancement of the Steady State Economy, author of Supply Shock: Economic Growth at the Crossroads; 'A fine, concise book which should enlarge the discussion on what in my view is the most important need of humanity, an "Ethics for a Full World".' - Paul Ehrlich, Bing Professor of Population Studies Emeritus and President of the Center for Conservation Biology, Stanford University
