Can we grow a tree (a sustainable future) in dry soil (our current economy)?
For centuries, our economic engine has driven growth by consuming the very foundations of the future—leading to mounting debt, extreme inequality, and environmental crisis. We are fast approaching a point where capitalism—once seen as the engine of progress—is now generating more problems than it solves. At this critical juncture, we need a New Economic Engine. Just as healthy soil is essential for a tree to grow, the right economic foundation is critical for a sustainable future.
Sustainomy is a global framework that transforms growth that consumes the future into growth that creates it. Because the 20th century economic model has created success for the private sector, it is fitting that Sustainomy builds upon the strengths of that model to succeed in the 21st century and positions the private sector as the spearhead of change. As societal and environmental dimensions, combined with intelligence, become the new rule of competition, the private sector together with people and the public sector that adapt will seize emerging opportunities, while those that don’t risk becoming irrelevant.
This book challenges the conventional language of growth—urging bold leaders across all sectors to envision a future where sustainable growth needs to entail wealth distribution, social well-being, and regenerative environment.

A story of transformation, shame, and the limits of love
“One morning, when Gregor Samsa woke from troubled dreams, he found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible vermin.”
Thus begins one of the strangest and most unforgettable stories ever written. The Metamorphosis follows a dutiful salesman who wakes to find his body grotesquely altered—and his family’s love slowly eroding.
In precise, dreamlike prose, Kafka dissects the loneliness of modern life, the cruelty of conformity, and the human need for dignity even in degradation.
A dark fable and a tender tragedy, The Metamorphosis asks: when everything familiar turns against us, what remains of the self?
“You have power over your mind—not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.”
In the midst of war and political turmoil, the Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius turned inward. Writing not for fame but for himself, he recorded thoughts on patience, compassion, and self-discipline—on how to live ethically even when the world feels wrong.
Meditations is a conversation with the self: honest, lucid, and profoundly humane. It asks how we might master anger, accept loss, and act justly without vanity or despair.
Through these powerful entries, Marcus Aurelius offers the enduring wisdom of Stoicism—how to live well, think clearly, and find steadiness in the storm.
A challenge to every certainty of morality
“One loves ultimately one’s desires, not the thing desired.”
In a world ruled by customs and tradition, a philosopher dares to question all that is held sacred. He seeks to pierce the veil of morality and confront the truths men shrink from seeing.
Beyond Good and Evil is a study of power, thought, and human will. It challenges the comfortable divisions of right and wrong, revealing the courage—and the peril—of thinking freely.
Nietzsche’s work is a brave interrogation of the deepest convictions of our society, and serves as a call to examine the foundations of belief, the hidden drives of the soul, and the possibilities that lie beyond the familiar confines of morality.
A tale of sin, conscience, and redemption
“Suffering is part and parcel of extensive intelligence and a feeling heart.”
Amid the shadowed alleys of St. Petersburg, a young student, impoverished and fevered with ideas, conceives of a dreadful act. He persuades himself that greatness may be purchased at the cost of blood, that a crime committed in the name of necessity is no crime at all. Yet the heart cannot flee the burden of guilt.
Crime and Punishment tells the story of fear, conscience and soul’s slow search for redemption. It is a study of the mind in torment, of choices that weigh us down, and of the fine line between right and wrong.
Dostoevsky’s masterwork is a haunting reflection on human nature, the cost of transgression, and the hope that even the darkest hearts may find light.
