BOOKNOTES

"Our planet is in trouble. But how can we reverse the current crisis and create a sustainable future? The answer is degrowth. LESS IS MORE is a wake-up call we need. By shining a light on ecological breakdown and the system that's causing it, Hickel shows how we can bring our economy back into balance with the living world and build a thriving society for all. This is our chance to change course, but we must act now."  (From the book's back cover)

Below is the first of two review essays on LESS IS MORE. The second one will be posted soon.
