Richard Barnet, the distinguished economic and political analyst, has in his recent books defined the major challenges facing modern civilization in a fascinating, readable authoritative style. In Global Reach (written with Ronald Muller), he dramatised the unprecedented power of the multinational corporations. In The Giants, he dissected the complex relationship between Russia and America. Now, in The Lean Years, Barnet iantly analyses the crucial issues we face in the immediate future: the scarcity of natural resources, the depletion of energy supplies, and the new world economic, political and military order that is rapidly emerging in response to these problems.
