Synopsis

Explores what emerging postmodern worldviews could mean for politics, work, welfare, health, and other aspects of the human predicament today.

Booknews

Collects 16 lectures and essays from the period 1977-96, four of which are previously unpublished. The works reflect the author's position that what is needed is a path of progress based on cooperative self- reliance, rather than the further growth of dependence. He explains the implications of this kind of progress for politics, energy and resources, work, welfare, monetary systems, health, and national and local policy in the industrialized countries of Great Britain, Europe, and North America. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
