E F Schumacher's work was not just about economics, it was
about a way of living, a philosophy of living that is more
important than ever.
On this website you
will find links to original pieces of work
by Schumacher, including information about the only film he made, On the Edge of
the Forest, and links to
organisations that carry on his work.

"To very few people, it is given to begin to change, drastically and
creatively, the direction of human thought. Dr Schumacher belongs to
this intensely creative minority and his death is an incalculable loss
to the whole international community"
Barbara Ward in The
Times, on Schumacher's death in 1977.

This site is developed
and maintained by Nicola Schumacher. My aim is to bring my father's
wisdom and inspiration to a new generation of people who must
grapple with the enormous environmental and social challenges of
today.
These people,
my generation, did not have the pleasure of knowing this wonderful
man and hearing his thoughts in person but will now be able to find out
more about his work through this website and through the website www.ef-schumacher.org which has been set up to celebrate, in 2011, the centenary of Schumacher's birth.
