Something is profoundly wrong with the way we live today.
For the last thirty years, from Reagan to Bush, from Thatcher to Brown, we have made a virtue out of the pursuit of material self-interest. We know what things cost but have no idea what they are worth. We no longer ask: is it good? Is it right? Will it help bring about a better society?
Tony Judt, one of the world's leading historians and intellectuals, argues that we must look to our recent past and once again value equality over affluence. This concentrated expression of a lifetime's concerns equips us with the tools to imagine a new form of governance and a better way of life.
