“Fred Harrison argues that mainstream economics – both as an academic discipline and as a set of principles guiding public policy – is flawed and requires a fundamental rethink. The author proposes the notion of ‘economics of civilisation’ as a conceptual and practical resource to renew the art of statecraft at the service of a global economy capable of producing wealth in ways that are socially and ecologically just and viable.”

This book is an important addition to the volume of work Fred has produced in an effort to change the course of history. Consider getting a copy to put into the hands of someone who commands an audience in what Walt Rybeck taught us is the “public dialogue.”
