Dr Eliza Filby
Inheritocracy
Inheritocracy delivers a provocative and eye-opening analysis, revealing a hidden truth: in the twenty-first century, economic success is less about what you learn or earn and more about the financial support you receive from your parents.
While this may seem like a recent shift, it has roots reaching back to the nineteenth century. For those under forty-five, life’s opportunities are now largely shaped by whether you have access to the parental ATM.
This book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the real economic forces shaping our world today.
Jeremy Rifkin
Planet Aqua
Backed by extensive research, this groundbreaking work by one of the world’s foremost public intellectuals, Jeremy Rifkin, seeks to redefine our very existence on what is now becoming Planet Aqua.
Our planet’s hydrosphere, the lifeblood of all living things, is rebelling against the relentless march of global warming. The result? Catastrophic spring floods, scorching summer droughts, ferocious heatwaves, and devastating wildfires, followed by relentless autumn hurricanes and typhoons.
These extreme events are tearing apart ecosystems and upending societies.
John Blakey
