Economics sometimes seems to be stacked against social,
environmental and individual well-being. But it doesn't have to be
like this. A new approach to economics - deriving as much from
Ruskin and Schumacher as from Keynes or Smith - has begun to
emerge. Skeptical about money as a measure of success, this new
economics turns our assumptions about wealth and poverty upside
down. It shows us that real wealth can be measured by increased
well-being and environmental sustainability rather than just having
and consuming more things. This book is the first accessible and
straightforward guide to the new economics. It describes the
problems and bizarre contradictions in conventional economics as
well as the principles of the emerging new economics, and it tells
the real-world stories of how new economics is being successfully
put into practice around the world. An essential guide to
understanding new economics for all those who care about making
economics work for people and planet.
