Teaches that Value Comes in Many Forms

This was a textbook at the infamous Friends World College and the only one I kept. Radical economists, when at my house (which isn't often), flip out when they see this book. It appears that it is the Holy Grail of understanding how the economy interplays with the environment - on a million levels. It has great visuals and explains huge ideas in as simple terms as possible.

I don't really care what sort of social change you're working for - this is an important guide book!
