	Victim of Success: Civilization at Risk By Peter McManners Web Site Victim of Success is a captivating analysis of humankind’s impact on planet Earth and shows how society must, and can, reverse direction. The first third of the book outlines, in ten short pithy chapters, the sequence of events that will lead to the collapse of civilization if the world continues with business as usual. The author then presents in Part 2 the action required to prevent it, courting controversy by hitting issues square on. The final part looks to the future with optimism and realism about the real-world choices we must make. It is the first book that takes such an Armageddon approach and proposes realistic changes in society to prevent it. “This book should be compulsory reading for all people with influence on the future direction of society, from world leaders and policy makers to teachers and voters. The time has come to support real change.” Professor Sir David King, Director, Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment, University of Oxford ISBN: 9780955736919 Hardback RRP £17.99 Requests for review copies to: peter.mason@susta.co.uk High res cover image available from peter.mason@susta.co.uk

‘... as a business student with entrepreneurial goals for the future I found this book to be very insightful about the needs and opportunities of the future sustainable world.’
Tony Paxton, MBA programme member, Helsinki.

Adapt and Thrive reads like a breezy textbook, with both well-researched historical and topical details; yet it also is driven by one man’s passion to bring about change.
Sustainable Industries magazine, United States.

‘...government and business who are currently unable to see beyond the current political term/share prices will oppose this book, but in twenty years they will be quoting it as the ‘Bible for Survival’.
Etelä-Suomen Sanomat, Finland.

Few writers have the cross discipline perspective to bring such a wide range of issue together.
