In one lifetime, GDP, or Gross Domestic Product, has ballooned from
a narrow economic tool into a global article of faith. As The
Little Big Number demonstrates, this spells trouble. While
economies and cultures measure their performance by it, GDP only
measures output. It ignores central facts such as quality, costs,
or purpose. Sustainability and quality of life are overlooked.
Losses don't count. The world can no longer afford GDP rule--GDP
ignores real development. Dirk Philipsen demonstrates how the
history of GDP reveals unique opportunities to fashion smarter
goals and measures. The Little Big Number explores a possible
roadmap for a future that advances quality of life rather than
indiscriminate growth.
