Abundance for the world

from Pomodoro Breaks · host Panigrahi Nirma

Imagine a world in 2050 where energy is nearly free and diseases are cured by medicines synthesized in orbit. In Abundance, Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson argue that today's crises from housing shortages to climate change are actually chosen scarcities. We possess the tools for a better life but remain paralyzed by outdated institutional blockages. This book proposes a liberalism that builds, urging us to stop managing decline and start inventing a future of plenty.
