Reviews

The first edition was referred by Yanis Varoufakis, who target to it as "essential reading for those refusing to succumb to a dystopic future". Noam Chomsky called it a "thoughtful and penetrating critique". Herman Daly praised it with: "It is hard to upgrading a classic, but Jackson has done it... a clearly calculation yet scholarly union of moral vision, with solid economics." Rowan Williams called it "one of the nearly important essays of our generation: both visionary and realistic, rooted in careful research and establish out unoriented but achievable goals, it gives what we so badly need – an selection to passivity, short-term selfishness and cynicism".
