Review

"Now in paperback: 'Elegantly written and deeply important... Saul has provide a vital analysis of why globalization was never inevitable and always destined to fail, and of what will come in its place.' Sebastian Bosher, Ecologist 'A prophet' Time; 'Insightful, informative and entertaining' Guardian 'Saul brings a great breadth of literary and cultural knowledge to his task... There is much that I like about this indignant approach, and there is much evidence to support Saul's contention that things are going badly wrong with our planet, its economic and social systems and its environment.' Paul Kennedy, Sunday Times"
