Unabridged Audiobook
Great read. Not only does it lay bare the issues of our past, it shows viable ideas for a path forward that is sustainable and that maintains individual liberties. Fantastic book for anyone trying to get a start on what to do about the problems of our modern age.
Read this after Noam Chomsky's "Consequences of Capitalism" and it was a perfect follow-up! Chomsky's was a bit headier and a touch more gloomy, and while this one doesn't skimp on any historical or academic insights, it also is a bit more digestible for me. Really think the two together helped solidify some of the concepts and context, and I appreciate the optimism and alternatives that Hickel went over.
A real eye opener! Not only to the doom and gloom befalling the worlds economies right now, but also as to how we can fix those problems too…
