The Moneyless Manifesto
Live well, live rich, live free
After nearly three years of living without money, Mark Boyle set down everything he had learned, both why and how.
The Moneyless Manifesto is two books in one. The first is a philosophical inquiry into money: how it shapes our relationships with each other and with the natural world, and why, for Mark, a life with less of it can be far richer. The second is a practical guide to living with less money or none, covering food, water, shelter, energy, transport, health, education and the community and skills that make it all possible.
Whether you want to step away from money altogether or simply rely on it a little less, this is a generous, hands-on starting point. It comes with a foreword by Charles Eisenstein, author of Sacred Economics.
