The Progress Illusion: Reclaiming Our Future from the Fairytale of Economics

Flawed economic thinking has led us to the abyss, argues long-time UVM Professor/Economist and Emmy-award winning doc filmmaker Jon Erickson whose clear, authoritative language and personal run-ins and revelations about the rigged ‘science’ of economics steer the reader to a new economics that puts well-being ahead of GDP.

“Erickson explains…just what would need to change if we were to actually build a world that worked much better. It’s a real gift to all of us!” – Bill McKibben on Progress Illusion.
