Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The decade of the 2020s promises to be as dynamic as any in recorded history. Those ten years will be characterized by an unprecedented commingling of an extremely rare confluence of social cycles with the three ingredients of the looming Sustainability Crisis - overpopulation, peak oil, and global climate change.Out of the ashes will arise the Great Transformation of 2021 - a cultural upheaval at least as significant as the Protestant Reformation of the sixteenth century. It is unlikely that either capitalism or the nation-state will survive it, and quite likely that the United States will descend into permanent decline because of it.The Great Transformation of 2021 will present mankind with challenges of historic proportions. If global society makes the right choices, the world could come out a better place on the other side. If it chooses wrongly, a nightmarish existence - if not outright human extinction - will be the consequence.
