Transform how you see the economy?and what's possible. Discover a science-based, hopeful path beyond crisis thinking with a regenerative model that works like a living system, helping leaders, communities, and citizens navigate climate chaos, inequality, and ecological breakdown with clarity and purpose.
This groundbreaking book reveals why today's economic model is failing?and how a regenerative approach can unlock resilience, justice, and health for people and the planet.

- Identifies the hidden fatal flaw driving today's polycrisis
- Explains regenerative design principles rooted in living systems
- Offers actionable steps and transformative policies for real change
- Moves beyond sustainability, circularity, and degrowth toward whole-system health
- Illuminates a path forward that aligns economic activity with ecological limits.
