'To compare capitalism with a disease such as cancer is a difficult task, but McMurtry does just this with a thought provoking analysis that should be embraced.' --Spectre The cancer stage of capitalism is not a metaphor. It is a rigorous description of where we are. --Susan George 'To compare capitalism with a disease such as cancer is a difficult task, but McMurtry does just this with a thought provoking analysis that should be embraced.' --Spectre The cancer stage of capitalism is not a metaphor. It is a rigorous description of where we are. --Susan George The Cancer Stage is not a metaphor but a rigorous description of where we are. Deeply learned, relentlessly logical and corrosively liberating, McMurtry is an unconventional, idol-smashing philosopher imbued with passion and urgency; a dangerous man. Every word resonates. - Susan George, author of The Debt Boomerang (Pluto) and A Fate Worse than Debt.
