THE SUNDAY TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLER 'His vision, ideas and passion
shine through on every page' Ed Balls 'Compelling, challenging,
inspiring and very timely' Piers Morgan 'Immensely powerful and
persuasive...I found it exhilarating throughout' Joanna Lumley When
the Covid-19 pandemic swept across the globe in 2020, it created an
unprecedented impact, greater than the aftermath of 9/11 or the
global financial crisis. But out of such disruption can come a new
way of thinking, and in this superb new book former UK prime
minister Gordon Brown offers his solutions to the challenges we
face in 2021 and beyond. In the book, he states that there are
seven major global problems we must address: global health; climate
change and environmental damage; nuclear proliferation; global
financial instability; the humanitarian crisis and global poverty;
the barriers to education and opportunity; and global inequality
and its biggest manifestation, global tax havens. Each one presents
an immense challenge that requires an urgent global response and
solution. All should be on the world's agenda today. None can be
solved by one nation acting on its own, but all can be addressed if
we work together as a global community. However, Brown remains
optimistic that, despite the many obstacles in our way, we will
find a path to regeneration via a new era of global order. Yes,
there is a crisis of globalisation, but we are beginning to see the
means by which it might be resolved. Crises create opportunities
and having two at once shouldn't just focus the mind, it might even
be seen as giving greater grounds for hope. In Seven Ways to Change
the World, Brown provides an authoritative and inspirational
pathway to a better future that is essential reading for policy
makers and concerned citizens alike.
