The author argues that the current focus on economic growth is a reversal of traditional values that has led to a concentration of wealth and power in a few hands and to the destruction of the global environment. He examines economism as a shared religion--how it came into being, its contributions and limitations, the institutions through which it acts, how it has reshaped our society, and its future. In addition, he includes criticism of the policies and practices of the Bretton Woods institutions as these follow from and express the ideology that shapes them.

PALGRAVE~MACMILLAN

<p>This book is about the liberation of the concept of life from the bondage fashioned by the interpreters of life ever since biology began, and about the liberation of the life of humans and non-humans alike from the bondage of social structures and behaviour, which now threatens the fullness of life's possibilities if not survival itself. It falls into a tradition of writings about human problems from a perspective informed by biology. It rejects the mechanistic model of life dominant in the Western world and develops an alternative 'ecological model' which is applicable to the life of the cell and the life of the human community. For the first time it brings together in one work the insights of modern biology with those of a modern holistic philosophy and a liberal theology in a way which challenges conventional approaches to science, agriculture, sociology, politics, economics, development and liberation movements.</p>
