No Is Not Enough

New York Times Bestseller National Book Award Longlist Publishers Weekly Best Books of 2017 Donald Trump's takeover of the White House is a dangerous escalation in a world of cascading crises. His reckless agenda--including a corporate coup in government; aggressive scapegoating and warmongering; and sweeping aside climate science to set off a fossil fuel frenzy--will generate waves of disasters and shocks to the economy; national security; and the environment. Acclaimed journalist; activist; and bestselling author Naomi Klein has spent two decades studying political shocks; climate change; and brand bullies. From this unique perspective; she argues that Trump is not an aberration but a logical extension of the worst; most dangerous trends of the past half-century--the very conditions that have unleashed a rising tide of white nationalism the world over. It is not enough; she tells us; to merely resist; to say no. Our historical moment demands more: a credible and inspiring yes; a roadmap to reclaiming the populist ground from those who would divide us--one that sets a bold course for winning the fair and caring world we want and need. This timely; urgent book from one of our most influential thinkers offers a bracing positive shock of its own; helping us understand just how we got here; and how we can; collectively; come together and heal.
