Adapt and Thrive: The Sustainable Revolution
Author: Peter J. McManners

Adapt and Thrive is a cross-discipline analysis of the world and its problems that outlines revolutionary changes within society.

According to this book Mankind is caught in a self-made trap. The conflict between conventional economics and the growing imperative to conserve the natural environment is irreconcilable. A revolution is required. We need to move beyond the short-term benefits of globalisation to build strong communities living as integral components of a sustainable world.

Part 1 outlines the coming of the revolution. Out of this a new reality will emerge, based on selfish determination to construct successful, sustainable societies.

In Part 2 a wide range of issues are examined; from climate change, energy and agriculture to transportation, manufacturing and urban living.

Part 3 shows how to force the pace of change through extending economics to support society in providing improved social provision and protection of the environment.

Adapt and Thrive puts a radical green view of the future into a framework for society that works. The ideas presented are not the idealism of the green movement, but the real-world reality arising from people's selfish determination to want a better life.
