The title of this sequel to Critical Path is Buckminster's acronym for "Gross
Universal Cash Heist." Written in allegorical form, this serious satire about
the rise of multi-national corporations, capitalistic selfishness and the
technological revolution emphasizes that our present economic system, and the
theories on which it is based are no longer useful because of its false
assumption of scarcity. Grunch of Giants portrays the rising multinational
corporations in the paradoxical role of functioning both as the epitome of
capitalistic selfishness and as the inadvertent vehicle for the dissolution of
national political boundaries.
