'Kempf's elegant thesis puts a stake in the heart of neoliberalism, explains ecology like a poet, and unravels the self-serving economic theories of both the left and the right. Kempf is a modern-day Lorax with a political conscience. He worries about the trees and the economy and democracy - in short, he puts the pieces of the puzzle together.'
