Summary
Trump, as extreme as he is, is less an aberration than a logical conclusion - a pastiche of pretty much all the worst and most dangerous trends of the past half century. A one-man megabrand, with wife and children as spin-off brands....
Remember when it all seemed to be getting better? Before Trump happened? Naomi Klein, internationally acclaimed journalist, activist and best-selling author, shows us how we got to this surreal and dangerous place, how to stop it getting a lot worse, and how, if we keep our heads, we can make things better.
No Is Not Enough reveals, among other things, how Trump's election was not a peaceful transition but a corporate takeover, one using deliberate shock tactics to generate wave after wave of crises and force through radical policies that will destroy people, the environment, the economy and national security.
This audiobook is the tool kit for shock resistance, showing all of us how we can break Trump's spell and win the world we need. Don't let them get away with it.

A manifesto for the rest of my life...
Amazing, beautiful, an absolute must read/listen, if you have been looking for answers and direction in the apparently hopeless situation of big oil destruction/brexit/trump, then this is it, they go low we go high, always, let us leap towards a better future!

A timely culmination of all of Klein's ideas
What was one of the most memorable moments of No Is Not Enough?
Too many to mention. It was a culmination of all Klein's ideas, perfectly summing up politics as it is now. It has certainly helped me to approach the disastrous election results with less trepidation and confusion. Showing that Trump is a symptom of the problems we have in the West as opposed to a freak result of an open democracy is crucial when it comes to making transformations for the future we want.
Any additional comments?
If only she was more widely read, perhaps events like this could be avoided rather than us all retrospectively slapping her on the back for diagnosing our worsening problems

A must read!
Perfectly narrated by Brit Marling, No Is Not Enough gives hope in what feels like a hopeless social, political, economic and environmental world.
For those who are new to Naomi Klien, this also acts as a concise summary of her other important works: No Logo, Shock Doctrine and This Changes Everything.

A compelling survival guide!
An urgent timely handbook on resisting the neoliberal madness that will destroy the world as we know it! The chapter on the Standing Rock Sioux was very moving! Read and get on board, your children will thank you for it.

Inspiring and brilliant.....
This book has taken my anger and despair, and transformed it, into not only optimistic hope, but, I now see how focused, intelligent action and organisation can and will not only defeat this greedy, self obsessed fool Trump and his like, but we are so close to potentially changing the entire planet and all its systems into a healthy, loving, creation of unlimited wonder.....we are limited only by our imaginations. I recommend Jiddu Krishnamurti to read alongside Niomi. The life force, i.e., love, is always more powerful than greed, which comes from ignorance and fear. Thanks young Miss Kline, you are a beautiful soul.

A must read
A must read for any right leaning, daily mail reading individuals. This is a fantastic summary of all of Naomi's previous work, set against the back drop of the current political climate.

Should be compulsory reading. Brilliant again from
Klein has taken the ethos that she so brilliantly captured in The Shock Doctrine and has not only updated it with the issues that we face today she has also offered hope in the of an alternative approach. A great follow in her superb catalogue.

raising awareness of current crises
the topic and the discussions and arguments in this book are very important to raise awareness on. I however didn't enjoy the performance of the narrator that much, it was dull and depressing although the topic already put you down.

Illuminating and Terrifying
Klien’s precise attack on the current occupant of the White House is as informative as it is truly terrifying. Though I don’t think this book stands to age that well. It gets to the heart of a lot of what is wrong with right wing American Perspectives and politics. It feels a bit too short If you’re interested in really sinking your teeth into what Naomi Klien’s work is about in general I’d recommend ‘No Logo’ over this, however if your here for the Trump bashing knock yourself out.
