“This book talks about what is needed to end poverty, save the planet and ourselves, but from a Global or "top down" perspective. This is not a very practical perspective because it will be VERY difficult to get countries to agree on policies. Too much special interest at stake. Although he has great stats, charts and reasoning.
A better read is Deep Economy by Bill McKibben which promotes change from the bottom up or individual perspective.
(Plus it is a paper back and more fun to read!)”
