At the beginning of the 21st Century we again face another severe economic crisis which threatens to cause suffering akin to that of the Great Depression. How is this possible when we have reached such dizzying heights in our ability to generate abundance? Will our seemingly limitless progress be the cause of our demise? You will enjoy the simplicity with which the book discusses the dominant causes of the current economic crisis and how we failed to learn from the lessons of the past. This book tells you how and why you have been deceived by many in positions of trust; why unemployment is likely to increase in the coming years; why your home, savings and other investments are likely to decrease in value, while your living expenses continue to increase; and why many will be exposed to continuing hardship despite the abundance surrounding them. This book will not only empower you to participate with confidence in future debates about the causes of the current crisis, but it will also tell you why the solution is in your hands. Most importantly, this book will equip you to resist the invisible forces which threaten to destroy all of us - greed, selfishness and man's apparent inability to share abundance.
