The The Next Crisis by Danny Dorling

The The Next Crisis by Danny Dorling

WHAT THE FUTURE LOOKS LIKE TO MOST PEOPLE. AND WHAT WE CAN DO ABOUT IT.

The Next Crisisis an important case study in the importance of evidence-based enquiryIn his characteristic conversational style, Danny Dorling urges readers to think beyond the dominant narratives about crises, making use of data to reorient our understanding of what really worries the world. In doing so, he raises the profile of a set of crises that threaten people's sense of the future, outlining the issues in accessible terms and providing an urgent and compelling agenda for action. The Next Crisis is a direct, clear-sighted challenge for those seeking to tackle the problems that matter most. -- Arianne Shahvisi, author of Arguing For A Better World
Magnificent, fascinating, empirical study of the great issues of our time. I would expect nothing less from the brilliant Professor Dorling -- George Monbiot, author of Regenesis
Dorling digs deep to understand crises - past, present and future. His conclusion is hopeful: that just as humans solved problems like cholera and the bubonic plague, so we can use politics and social organisation to collectively solve the next crisis. Read this if you need realism, cheer and hope -- Ann Pettifor, author of The Case for the Green New Deal
Campaigners are often told that we need both statistics and stories to make the case for change, but few have taken this as seriously as Danny Dorling. -- Kate Pickett, co-author of The Spirit Level
