This book offers a fresh take on how economics can evolve to better address modern challenges like environmental crises and AI.

It draws on ideas from physics and quantum theory to redefine value and encourages economists to rethink traditional approaches.

I really liked some of the figures and illustrations used to explain complex concepts—they really helped clarify the ideas presented.

It’s a thoughtful read for those interested in the intersection of science and economics.
