Creating Alternative Futures: The End of Economics

Creating Alternative Futures has pioneered many debates on how to guide industrial societies on healthier paths toward more equitable, ecologically sustainable human development. Henderson explains how GNP distorts the goal of human development worldwide. She points out misleading assumptions and a redefinition of health, wealth, and progress for humanity's long-term survival. The book predicts the sweep of democratization and the new "third sector" of grassroots globalists.
