An analysis of the contemporary world and its future. The author begins by assessing whether there are limits to growth and if so, how we can change our attitude and prevent the destruction which seems inevitable. The work should be of particular interest to Green Party goups, environmental groups, humanistic economics groups and liberal religious groups.
