BELIEVING CASSANDRA

Book ID/图书代码： 04090710B40613

English Summary/英文概要： A bestseller on Amazon.com within months of its first release, Alan AtKisson’s debut book quickly became a modern classic of sustainability literature. Global companies, grassroots groups, university courses, government agencies, and even the US Army ordered it by the box. Now fully revised and updated, Believing Cassandra: How to be an Optimist in a Pessimist’s World is even more relevant, fresh, and motivating than when it first appeared in 1999.
In a style that’s refreshingly candid and vivid, with unforgettable personal anecdotes, AtKisson provides us with a bridge over the sea of despair, and shows us how to catch the wave to an enticing, sustainable future. He empowers the reader to join the pioneers who created the ideas, techniques and practices of sustainable living - the people who prove Cassandra’s warnings wrong, by believing in them, and taking strategic action.

Awards/获奖情况：“格外地具有可读性而且博学。我认为《相信比卡桑德拉》不仅仅是一本书，更是一种人类神经信号的传递，告诉我们什么该做，什么不该做。鉴于本书严格尊重科学和事实是，在我看来是一次福祉胜过一个警告，是祝福而不是恶兆，因为我们所需要的信息正是描述我们消亡的信息一致，即如果被忽略的话，从一种文化过渡到人类发展方向之一的趋势可以毫无阻碍地成长。”——保罗•霍肯，摘自前言
