In' 23 Things They Don't Tell You About Capitalism' one of today's most iconoclastic thinkers destroys the biggest myths about the world we live in.
Ultimately free market capitalism is making us more prosperous. The West is more efficient and financially savvy than the developing world. And technology is the way forward for everyone. Right?
Wrong. This book will turn every piece of received economic wisdom you've heard on its head. It reveals the truth behind what 'they' tell you and shows how the system really works, including:
GLOBALIZATION ISN'T MAKING THE WORLD RICHER
WE DON'T LIVE IN A DIGITAL WORLD - THE WASHING MACHINE HAS CHANGED LIVES MORE THAN THE INTERNET
POOR COUNTRIES ARE MORE ENTREPRENEURIAL THAN RICH ONES
HIGHER PAID MANAGERS DON'T PRODUCE BETTER RESULTS
This galvanizing, fact-packed book about money, equality, freedom and greed proves that the free market isn't just bad for people – it's an inefficient way of running economies too. Here Chang shows there's a better way.
