Reviews

'Mainstream economics is bankrupt. In this book, Per Espen Stoknes guides us towards a saner alternative. He plunges deeply into the roots of our relationship with money and emerges with solid, workable proposals for a new economy. Money & Soul is a vitally important contribution to creating a sustainable future.' Dr Stephan Harding, co-ordinator of the MSc in Holistic Science at Schumacher College and author of Animate Earth. 'The need for new ideas has never been more pressing - Now is precisely the time to start thinking very differently indeed - and Per Espen Stoknes certainly rises to that particular challenge.' Jonathon Porritt, Founder Director, Forum for the Future.
