1st paragraph of inside sleeve: In this book Jeffrey Sachs, one of the world’s leading economists and author of best selling The End Of Poverty, analyses and addresses the great, and interconnected, global challenges of the twenty first century. A series of cascading threats to global well-being – the most significant being environmental degredation and rapid population growth – bear down upon our increasingly crowded planet. All of them are solvable, Sachs argues, but potentially disatrous if left unattended. |
