Greatest Challenges
László Szombatfalvy's book "The Greatest Challenges of Our Time" ("Vår tids största utmaningar" in Swedish) - where he identifies and analyzes environmental degradation, climate change, political violence and poverty is now available online in Swedish and English.


The book can be found and read here: http://thegreatestchallengesofourtime.com/


THE GREATEST CHALLENGES OF OUR TIME describes the huge risks that threaten mankind and our world today. However, the analyses in the book do not come from a scientist or a politician but from a man who, as early as the 1970s, gained notice and respect on the Swedish stock market for his deep knowledge of risk assessment. When his expertise is applied to the world’s present situation, an alarming picture emerges. However, the book is not a doomsday prophesy. Instead it may be best described as “consumer information”.

The author wants to share his risk analyses and provide the general public with deeper insights into and knowledge of the threats facing our planet. He is convinced that in order that political leaders be able to take the difficult but necessary measures to counter global risks, it is first necessary for a majority of the public to attain a well-founded understanding of the major problems and threats facing the world today.

Szombatfalvy focuses on four global mega-problems: environmental damage, climate change, political violence (weapons of mass destruction), and poverty (with its related population explosion).
