In this powerful and provocative manifesto, Bill McKibben
offers the biggest challenge in a generation to the
prevailing view of our economy. Deep Economy makes the
compelling case for moving beyond “growth†as the paramount
economic ideal and pursuing prosperity in a more local
direction, with regions producing more of their own food,
generating more of their own energy, and even creating more
of their own culture and entertainment. Our purchases need
not be at odds with the things we truly value, McKibben
argues, and the more we nurture the essential humanity of
our economy, the more we will recapture our own.
