[Wiley] The New Economics A Manifesto [Paperback] By Steve Keen

In 1517, Martin Luther nailed his 95 theses to the wall of Wittenberg church. He argued that the Churchs internally consistent but absurd doctrines had pickled into a dogmatic structure of untruth. It was time a Remation. Half a millennium later, Steve Keen argues that economics needs its own Remation. In Debunking Economics, he eviscerated an intellectual church neoclassical economics that systematically ignores its own empirical untruths and logical fallacies, and yet is still mysteriously worshipped by its scholarly high priests. In this book, he presents his Remation: a New Economics, which tackles serious issues that today's economic priesthood ignores, such as money, energy and ecological sustainability. It gives us hope that we can save our economies from collapse and the planet from ecological catastrophe. Perming this task with his usual panache and wit, Steve Keens new book is unmissable to aone who has noticed that the economics Emperor is naked and would like him to put on some clothes.
