"This is a concise and darkly humorous guide to the three great crises plauging today's world: environmental degradation, social conflict in the age of austerity, and financial instability. Written for anyone who is wondering how we've come to this point, Rob Larson holds mainstream economic theory up against grim reality. He examines scientists' conclusions about climate change, exposes the business world's opinions about its own power, and reveals the fingerprints of finance on American elections."
Rob Larson teaches Economics at Tacoma Community College in Washington State, USA. He writes regularly for Dollars & Sense and Z Magazine.
