註釋
"Human society, like the Titanic, is headed for a serious collision. Unless we change our ways of thinking about consumption and resource use, unless we demand that government provide really sustainable solutions, we, as a society and species, are headed for disaster. According to the latest UN report, we have only a few years to change our ways. Most political parties mouth the platitudes about sustainability, but few examine the fundamental nature of the crisis we face. Conrad Schmidt, founder of the Work Less Party, tackles the questions of over-consumption and the future of society in his newest book, Workers of the World, Relax. The book, in brief, is a revolution in the making and a revolution worth joining and fighting for. In a series of brilliant essays, Schmidt addresses questions that most politicians fear to face and offers "thinking-outside-the-box" solutions. Readers beware: Schmidt will make you think and question things you have been trained to accept as received wisdom. This is dangerous, radical stuff. It might just help you save your world. Read it and be part of the solution, rather than part of the problem."--Christopher A. Shaw, PhD, Professor, UBC --From cover verso.
