Born in Germany, Dr. E. F. Schumacher (1911-1977) fled to England after the rise of Nazism and, with the help of John Maynard Keynes, taught economics at Oxford University. He is the author of Small Is Beautiful, the book that "changed the way many people think about bigness and its human cost" (New York Times).
"Small Is Beautiful changed the way many people think about bigness
and its human costs."--New York Times
"Embracing what Schumacher stood for--above all the idea of
sensible scale--is the task for our time. Small is Beautiful could
not be more relevant. It was first published in 1973, but it was
written for our time."--Bill McKibben, from the Foreword
