"In this radical, visionary look at our possibilities for a sustainable future, Hazel Henderson discusses the “globalization” of human affairs, and proposes new ways of evaluating and improving a city or nation’s quality of life. We need an alternative, she explains, to such indicators as the GNP, which values war weapons but not environmental or human resources, an alternative to violence as a solution to political problems, and “a new game where the most ethical companies and the most socially responsible people and governments get a chance to win.”"
"Some pundits would have us believe that the future belongs to big oil, big money - big business in general. Not so, argues Henderson, author of Creating Alternative Futures (Berkeley Windhover 1978) and Politics of the Solar Age (Anchor/Doubleday 1981). She takes on the IRS, the corporate powers-that-be, and our over-reliance on non-renewable resources in her critique of what she terms “the funny-money economy,” and tells us what she sees in our economic future."
