Once again Andrew Simms has written a book full of passion as well as abundant theory, fact and analysis, integrating economics and ecology to create a vision for a positive futureAnd Simms recommends a simple test for any new policy or proposal: will it increase pressure on the biosphere, will it lead to a more equal distribution of wealth and income, and will it enhance human well-being? Here is a viable and attractive alternative to the flawed and senseless pursuit of growth at all costs Kate Pickett, co-author of The Spirit Level Andrew Simms is relentlessly smart: here he's produced the most comprehensive survey yet of all the answers already at our fingertips to the problems that are overwhelming us. Greed and inertia may prevent action, but we can no longer claim ignorance as an excuse Bill McKibben, author of The End of Nature
Andrew Simms is the author of several books including the bestselling Tescopoly. He is a Fellow of nef (the new economics foundation), trained at the London School of Economics and was described by New Scientist magazine as, 'a master at joined-up progressive thinking.' He is also one of the UK's leading campaigners who coined the term 'Clone Towns,' co-authored the groundbreaking Green New Deal, was one of the original organisers of the campaign to cancel poor country debt, and devised how to mark the day in the year when the world enters 'ecological debt.' Andrew witnessed first hand for more than twenty years failed international efforts to solve critical economic and environmental problems, from extreme poverty to climate change. This book is the result of his search for something better.
