The Efficient Society: Why Canada Is As Close To Utopia As It Gets

Joseph Heath

4.9/5 (20826 ratings)

Description:In this fascinating account of what makes Canada such a successful society, Joseph Heath celebrates the much-maligned value of efficiency and asks some searching questions about the forces that threaten to undermine our quality of life. Canada is an efficient society, much more efficient than our neighbour to the south, where personal liberty takes precedence over collective well-being. This is one of the reasons, Heath argues, that the United Nations Annual Human Development Report consistently ranks Canada as the best place in the world to live. But this efficiency is under siege. Can we resist the allure of short-sighted tax cuts? Can we maintain our quality of life in the face of relentless pressure to increase our productivity - both at work and at home?This is a profound and important look at how government and business conspire to improve our lives - and at the dramatic changes that will decide our social and economic future.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
