About this title

Synopsis

Economist Herman Daly and theologian John Cobb, Jr. show how America's growth-oriented, over-industrialized economy has led to environmental problems, and offer new ideas to help alleviate some of these concerns. "A profound critiqueof conventional economic theories and policies...Highly recommended".--F2

Reviews

Industrial nations that favor economic growth over ecological consciousness led Cobb and Daly to devise these counteractive plans. PW called this ``a detailed, far-reaching blueprint for a highly decentralized economy. . . . The authors' important, radical critique of contemporary economic thinking in the book's dry first half leads to specific proposals in the second.''
