Als Schatzkanzler Großbritanniens sorgte Gordon Brown für die längste Wachstumsperiode in der gesamten Geschichte des Landes. Während des Höhepunkts der Finanzkrise war er britischer Premierminister. Weit vor allen anderen europäischen Regierungen – die deutsche eingeschlossen – erkannte er die globale Dimension der Krise. Seine erfolgreichen Rettungsmaßnahmen waren international wegweisend. In seinem Buch zeigt er, wie es ihm gelang, sein Land durch die Turbulenzen zu steuern. Doch Brown warnt: International ist die Krise noch nicht ausgestanden. Basierend auf seiner großen wirtschaftspolitischen Erfahrung entwirft er einen fundierten Plan, mit dem es uns gelingen wird, weltweit neues Wachstum zu schaffen.
This book presents rich source material; it makes no claim to being academic, though referring whenever possible to works available to the authors (the bibliography more or less stops with Ian Gordon-Brown's death in 1996). However, those interested in Transpersonal Psychology as an academic discipline will be able to avail themselves of the wealth of original material here and take it into the world of comparative study. Its origins could be traced back way beyond Jung, Frankl, Maslow and Assagioli to Far Eastern and Aboriginal sources, to Greek and later Western teaching, to other great transpersonal pioneers of the twentieth century and forward into the twenty-first.
