"More than a quarter of a century ago, E. F. Schumacher rang out his timely warning that rampant consumerism would result in gross economic inefficiency, pollution and inhumane working conditions. In a world that places a larger burden than ever on the planet which sustains it, his voice of reason resounds with even greater urgency today." "Joseph Pearce develops Schumacher's legacy while taking up the themes of economic and political 'smallness' for our day. He continues Schumacher's clarion cry against the idolatry of giantism by highlighting the beauty of smallness. When economic, political or social structures are too large, they become impersonal and unresponsive to human needs and aspirations. In such an environment individuals feel dispossessed, voiceless, powerless and alienated."--BOOK JACKET.
