=== L'entraide: L'autre loi de la jungle ===
'''Servigne, Chapelle'''
''Alors que nos sociétés libérales sont fondées sur des valeurs qui ne trouvent trop souvent du sens qu’à travers la compétition, Gauthier Chapelle et Pablo Servigne – l’auteur du succès de librairie Comment tout peut s’effondrer – commettent ici un ouvrage majeur. Au modèle de « la guerre de tous contre tous », ils proposent de substituer une vision du vivre-ensemble basée sur l’entraide. Car en balayant l’éventail du vivant – des bactéries aux sociétés humaines en passant par les plantes et les animaux –, il apparaît clairement que les organismes qui survivent le mieux aux conditions difficiles ne sont pas les plus forts, mais ceux qui s’entraident le plus… ''

=== The 2030 Spike ===
'''Mason'''
''The clock is relentlessly ticking! Our world teeters on a knife-edge between a peaceful and prosperous future for all, and a dark winter of death and destruction that threatens to smother the light of civilization. Within 30 years, in the 2030 decade, six powerful 'drivers' will converge with unprecedented force in a statistical spike that could tear humanity apart and plunge the world into a new Dark Age. Depleted fuel supplies, massive population growth, poverty, global climate change, famine, growing water shortages and international lawlessness are on a crash course with potentially catastrophic consequences. In the face of both doomsaying and denial over the state of our world, Colin Mason cuts through the rhetoric and reams of conflicting data to muster the evidence to illustrate a broad picture of the world as it is, and our possible futures. Ultimately his message is clear; we must act decisively, collectively and immediately to alter the trajectory of humanity away from catastrophe. Offering over 100 priorities for immediate action, The 2030 Spike serves as a guidebook for humanity through the treacherous minefields and wastelands ahead to a bright, peaceful and prosperous future in which all humans have the opportunity to thrive and build a better civilization. This book is powerful and essential reading for all people concerned with the future of humanity and planet earth.''
