Opis

There is just no reason for millions to die, or for hundreds of millions more to suffer needlessly, when the solutions are at our fingertips. While we now have more technology on this planet than ever in history, we have an equally incredible measure of affliction, and it just doesn't add up.
Today we number seven billion souls. We are not only more numerous, but in addition we each require a steady supply of food and water for many more years than our predecessors did. With more than three-quarters of our planet living on less than $5 US per day, we need a lot more than just aid, we need dramatic increases in the availability of education and efficient models based on free markets that can be easily implemented anywhere in the world.
Radical Response confronts the problem of human survival through a bold new perspective. Authors Richard Lackey and Thom Garlock carefully survey the landscape of disaster relief, agriculture, aid and philanthropy, weigh the pros and cons of traditional approaches, and take stock of new technologies that are available to us for the first time in our history. When considered together, these factors have led the authors to an exciting new possibility for bringing aid to suffering populations. Moreover, they share the successes of several others that stimulate a new paradigm of thought.
Through the implementation of new ideas we humans have survived on our fragile spinning rock, and that is how we can expect to create a bright future for generations to come.
