The Religion of the Future by Roberto Mangabeira Unger
A new philosophy of religion for a secular world
A philosophical mind out of the Third World turning tables, to become a synoptist and seer of the First-- Perry Anderson
A restless visionary. * New York Times *
One of the few living philosophers whose thinking has the range of the great philosophers of the past. -- Lee Smolin * Times Higher Education Supplement *
His ideas are wide-ranging but essentially amount to a passionate call to stop thinking about everything in terms of economics and finance, what he calls "the dictatorship of no alternatives". * Financial Times *
