The book discusses ways in which the consumption of raw materials for production purposes have impacted on the environment and general living conditions not only in developed but also in developing countries. Its discussions focus on reducing the flow of materials by restructuring economies to focus more on the delivery services instead of product creation. The topics discussed include the down-side of consumption, limits to efficiency, and suggested ways of restructuring the material world.
