Whose Crisis, Whose Future? Towards a Greener, Fairer, Richer World

"It is a rare and wonderful thing when a book by one of our most trusted intellects arrives at the precise moment in history when it is needed most. All that is left is for us to pick it up and act to change the course of history." Naomi Klein "George has a brilliant capacity to see through the complex layers of a finance-driven world created by and for elites. She also, thankfully, has the intellectual sharpness and political passion to inspire the fight for change." New Internationalist "A very useful and eminently readable treatise on the present impasse." Morning Star "George's passion and knowledge of her staggeringly broad subject matter can't help but come through." Red Pepper "An important read for those who believe change is necessary." Irish Times "A really valuable and impressive book. Susan George leads us through a chamber of horrors ... Fortunately, the lucid and carefully documented picture she presents also shows that there are paths out of the darkness, realistic and within reach if the will is there. Lessons to be taken to heart by those who have concern for humans and their fate." Noam Chomsky "Susan George has a rare gift for seeing the big picture. She explains with great clarity the forces that oppress us, the choices that face us and the action that needs to be taken. Please read this book: it will equip you better than any other to confront the injustices of a world run for the benefit of a tiny elite." George Monbiot "This book is a lighthouse for our times. It shines a penetrating light onto the causes of our current devastating problems and onto the people responsible. It illustrates, with great clarity, the necessary solutions and shows that the power to achieve these lies in our hands. It combines the bleakness of The Road with a belief in the human power for transformation. Ultimately, it is a beacon of hope." Stewart Wallis
