Critics Review
“As so many Americans feel powerless to confront a financial system designed to serve the few, Shuman offers us real choices: tools that align our lives with our values. That’s power. I love this highly readable, timely, surprising book.”
—Frances Moore Lappé, coauthor of Daring Democracy and author of Diet for a Small Planet
“Local cheese, local beer—and local investing! This is a valuable guide to taking money out of the few giant banks (which are probably using it to underwrite the fossil fuel industry) and putting it to work close to home!”
—Bill McKibben, author of Falter
“Once again Michael Shuman has given us a clear manual for how well-meaning, good people (the 99.99 percent of us) can put their money where their hearts are—in communities where they live, in local businesses, trade, and retail.”
—Vicki Robin, coauthor of Your Money or Your Life and author of Blessing the Hands That Feed Us
