Is labour's day over or is this the big moment? Are unions the logical next step beyond the Occupy Movement, or are they just an anachronism from a bygone era? In Only One Thing Can Save Us, acclaimed author Thomas Geoghegan asserts that only a new kind of labour movement can help switch course toward a future that is fair and prosperous for all people. He shows how a revitalised labour movement can help ease debt. Geoghegan argues that labour must transform itself as well. This is a sorely needed call to arms, written in Geoghegan's inimitable, winning and witty style.
