Doughnut Economics : Seven Ways to Think Like a 21st-Century Economist Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

The book that redefines economics for a world in crisis. Relentless financial crises. Extreme inequalities in wealth. Remorseless pressure on the environment. Anyone can see that our economic system is broken. But can it be fixed?In Doughnut Economics, Oxford academic Kate Raworth identifies the seven critical ways in which mainstream economics has led us astray - from selling us the myth of 'rational economic man' to obsessing over growth at all costs - and offers instead an alternative roadmap for bringing humanity into a sweet spot that meets the needs of all within the means of the planet.

Ambitious, radical and provocative, she offers a new cutting-edge economic model fit for the challenges of the 21st century. _____________________________________________________*The Sunday Times Bestseller**A Financial Times and Forbes Book of the Year**Winner of the Transmission Prize 2018**Longlisted for the FT/McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award 2017*'The John Maynard Keynes of the 21st century.'
