"In digestible and elegant prose, easy to read and exciting to absorb, Derber and Moodliar show brilliantly how runaway capitalism, climate change and militarism (with its nuclear threat) create the perfect storm that threatens human survival. With many ah-ha moments, they make an urgent call, based on solid evidence, for a 21st century movement to abolish carbon emissions and nuclear weapons, taking inspiration from the movement to abolish slavery. They make the impossible seem not only possible, but essential. Read it and jump into the movement waters that will nourish your soul and might just save the planet."

--Medea Benjamin, cofounder of Code Pink and Global Exchange, author of War in Ukraine, winner of Gandhi and Martin Luther King peace prizes

"An eloquent call for abolition of fossil fuels and militarism, very soon. Dying for Capitalism is carefully reasoned and informed, spelling out what we can and must do, without delay."

-- Noam Chomsky, University of Arizona, Emeritus Professor, MIT

"Our planet Earth lies in the tightening grip of giant corporatized destruction with no firm stop signs. Derber and Moodliar deliver the indictment and verdict in many dimensions, showing the urgency of universalizing the resistance beyond protest and demands. They call for nothing less than unified action, propelled by the younger generation towards displacing corporatism and militarism with transformative structures taking ever deeper roots. This motivating book, marked toward the survival of all species, should be in every high school and college classroom."

-- Ralph Nader, author, activist and consumer advocate

"This must read cogent book dissects the interconnected systemic crisis bringing us to the brink of extinction. Dying for Capitalism illuminates the threads of the poly-crisis driven by extractive capitalism, ecological destruction, and entrenched militarism. Read it and weep -and then roll up your sleeves and engage."

-- Chuck Collins, co-editor, Inequality.org at the Institute for Policy Studies; author, Altar to an Erupting Sun

"This book is original and essential reading. As this and upcoming generations contend with a web of existential, hand-me-down crises, Dying for Capitalism reveals root causes and solutions. I will be assigning this book to my students as a major resource for navigating the political and grassroots community work that is now both their burden and charge."

-- Jonathan White, Associate Professor of Sociology, Bentley University

"Few could be free so long as what 19th century abolitionists called "The Slave Power" remained standing. Derber and Moodliar call us to face up to today's abolitionist task with the courage of our forebears, and lay out a series of original and urgent strategies."

-- Ben Manski, Assistant Professor of Sociology, George Mason University
