“Embraced by Democrats and Republicans, Conservatives and Labour, neoliberalism is simultaneously all-encompassing and seldom, if ever, explicitly named. Guardian columnist George Monbiot and filmmaker Peter Hutchison have set out to lift the veil on this ‘invisible doctrine.’ The result is a passionate, informed polemic that is short but packed with detail and incisive analysis.”—The Guardian
“Incisive, illuminating, eye-opening—an unsparing anatomy of the great ideological beast stalking our times, often whispered about and yet never so clearly in view.”—David Wallace-Wells, author of The Uninhabitable Earth
“If you want to know how neoliberals spread the dangerous lie that their ideas were new, liberal, and commonsensical, Invisible Doctrine is everything you need. Monbiot and Hutchison have written the definitive short history of the neoliberal confidence trick.”—Yanis Varoufakis, former finance minister of Greece and author of Adults in the Room
“A powerful, punchy exposé of the invisible powers that block the road to human and planetary well-being—a must-read for everyone who seeks a better alternative to the crises that threaten to overwhelm us.”—Kate Pickett, co-author of The Spirit Level
“Read it, get angry, demand better!”—Gaia Vince, author of Nomad Century
“An urgent unmasking of some of the most powerful and insidious yet overlooked ideas of our era. Invisible Doctrine is a fantastic start for anyone who wants to know why politics as we understand it does not work for our communities or our planet—and what kind of politics just might.”—Olúfẹ́mi O. Táíwò, author of Elite Capture
“A vigorous analysis . . . a damning, persuasive critique of neoliberalism.”—Kirkus Reviews
“This is the right moment for this gem of a book. A few years ago, most people couldn’t have quite heard the argument; a few years from now, on this overheating planet, it will be too late for it to matter. But we can still act—as long as we do it together.”—Bill McKibben, author of The End of Nature
“Explosive and beautifully told . . . These truths can set us free from the lie that this is the only way the world can be.”—Danny Dorling, author of Inequality and the 1%
