Description

First published in 1967, "The Costs of Economic Growth" was based on the central conviction that the official figures for growth in real income were entirely compatible with a decline in human welfare. Twenty-five years later, "The Costs of Economic Growth" remains one of the most persuasive and systematic demolitions of the religion of growth yet published, its arguments only reinforced by the growing social and environmental problems of the late 20th century. For this new major edition the text has been revised and updated in the light of recent global perils and environmetal degradation.
