THE GROWTH DELUSION : THE WEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF NATIONS

SHORTLISTED FOR THE ORWELL PRIZE FOR POLITICAL WRITING 2019A near miracle Ha-Joon Chang, author of 23 Things They Dont Tell You About CapitalismAccording to the economy, we have never been wealthier or happier. So why doesnt it feel that way? The Growth Delusion explores how we prioritise growth maximisation without stopping to think about the costs. So much of what is important to our well-being, from safe streets to sound minds, lies outside the purview of statistics. In a book that is both thought-provoking and entertaining, David Pilling argues that our steadfast loyalty to growth is informing misguided policies, and proposes different criteria for measuring our success.
