A new study guide on Small is Beautiful

Honoring the 50th anniversary of E.F. Schumacher’s book Small is Beautiful in 2023, the Schumacher Center commissioned this updated study guide from British author and Journalist David Boyle.

A landmark of the modern environmental movement, the book’s eminently logical argument for an economics in which people and the planet truly matter has inspired countless readers. Chapter by chapter, this study guide looks afresh at Small is Beautiful, explaining some of the aspects that now seem a little obscure, putting it in the context of what has been happening since 1973 – and looking ahead about what could happen next. Along the way, David also suggests a number of elements and questions that could make for fascinating or useful discussions, at colleges, homes or places of worship.
