Whitman READ BOOK NOW   DOWNLOAD BOOK NOW   Book Synopsis : Nazism triumphed in Germany during the high era of Jim Crow laws in the United States.

Worst-Case Economics: Extreme Events in Climate and Finance By : Frank Ackerman READ BOOK NOW   DOWNLOAD BOOK NOW   Book Synopsis : Why do climate and financial crises pose such extreme risks? And what does it take to respond effectively to those risks? Extreme weather events - storms and sea-level rise, heat waves, droughts and floods - seem ever more common and extreme, while scientists warn of even greater climate risks ahead.

None of this would be possible in the world as imagined by conventional economics - an imaginary land of gradualism, equilibrium, well-informed rationality and the win-win solutions dealt by the invisible hand.The erratic rhythm of boom and bust in financial markets could be explained either by the patterns of crowd-following behaviour among investors, or by the unequal distribution of wealth (and the impact of the largest investors on the markets).
