No Is Not Enough: Defeating the New Shock Politics (Paperback)
Naomi Klein (author)Published: 03/05/2018
'Naomi Klein's new book incites us brilliantly to interweave our No with a programmatic Yes. A manual for emancipation.' - Yanis Varoufakis
Naomi Klein - award-winning journalist, bestselling author of No Logo, The Shock Doctrine and This Changes Everything, scourge of brand bullies and corporate liars - gives us the toolkit we need to survive our surreal, shocking age.
Remember when love was supposed to Trump hate? Remember when the oil companies and bankers seemed to be running scared? What the hell happened? And what can we do about it? Naomi Klein shows us how we got here, and how we can make things better.
No Is Not Enough reveals, among other things, that the disorientation we're feeling is deliberate. That around the world, shock political tactics are being used to generate crisis after crisis, designed to force through policies that will destroy people, the environment, the economy and our security. That extremism isn't a freak event - it's a toxic cocktail of our times.
From how to trash the Trump megabrand to the art of reclaiming the populist argument, Naomi Klein shows all of us how we can break the spell and win the world we need. Don't let them get away with it.

'[A] brilliant articulation of restless anxiety.' - Tim Adams, The Observer
'Makes a powerful and an important point: that you cannot understand Trump without looking at how he reflects bigger cultural and social dynamics.' - Gillian Tett, Financial Times
'The book manages to be that rare thing in political writing: both rousing and profoundly sensible... It's a frightening proposition. It is also the only thing that makes sense. The urgency of this period of human history demands no less.' - Laurie Penny, New Statesman
'In No Is Not Enough, Naomi Klein anatomises the roots of Trump in the already dystopian world of corporate-ruled America and predicts the "end run around democracy". A clear and readable guide to action, if it is action you are contemplating.' - Paul Mason, The Guardian
