The Second Curve

Mehr zum Buch

Charles Handy builds on a life's work to glimpse into the future and see what challenges and opportunities lie ahead. He looks at current trends in capitalism and asks whether it is a sustainable system. He explores the dangers of a society built on credit. He challenges the myth that remorseless growth is essential. He even asks whether we should rethink our roles in life--as students, parents, workers and voters--and what the aims of an ideal society of the future should be. Provocative and thoughtful, he sets out the questions we all need to ask ourselves--and points us in the direction of some of the answers.
