In particular, it describes how several flourishing organisations, some large and some small, have remained closely linked with his ideas and work, and have since become associated as the Schumacher Circle. The particular contribution of E. F. Schumacher was to bring a profound wisdom and humanity to bear on the practical challenges of our time, and the Briefing both illuminates Schumacher’s thinking and shows the ways in which each of us can help to turn our present crisis into the opportunity to build a more kind, just and ecologically sustainable society. Review: This brilliant economist, Schumacher, is more relevant than ever! - For those who think that Socialism is too soft, and for those who think that Capitalism is too harsh, Schumacher's "Small Is Beautiful" is more relevant today than it was decades ago when his theory was first introduced. This brilliant English economist has put forth an economic system that has redefined "the best of both worlds." It is required reading for anyone who wishes to see constructive change in our global economic system. This is a system that encourages growth and entrepreneurial energy, as well as provides an acceptable safety net for those who struggle. "Small is Beautiful" is both a good read, and accessible to any layman who wants to understand how to maintain a free economy with a balance of economic equality. Review: waste of money - This book is a follow-up to the book of small is beautiful and is only concerned with blowing its own horn with accounts of programs it credits itself with doing. A waste of money because there is nothing to learn from it. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #3,097,541 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,129 in Sustainability & Green Design #1,900 in Urban & Land Use Planning (Books) #2,727 in Theory of Economics | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 out of 5 stars 42 Reviews | ## Images ![Small Is Beautiful in the 21st Century: The legacy of E.F.
