'The Best of Resurgence' brings together sixty-four outstanding articles published between 1965 and 1990 of the radical magazine Resurgence, including articles by E.F. Schumacher. The articles range from health, new economics, education, peace, the arts of the imagination, mythology, native cultures, land use, Green politics, women's issues to traditional wisdom and are all connected through their concern for the earth and all its creatures.

A consistent advocate of Green thinking long before it became fashionable, Resurgence has been an influential forum for the discussion of the root causes of our current industrial and materialistic crisis.
