An Extraordinary Time

An Extraordinary Time

Author: Marc Levinson
Mark Levinson
Publishing date: 2016
Stagnant wages. Feeble growth figures. An angry, disillusioned public. The early 1970s witnessed the arrival of the problems that define the twenty-first century. In An Extraordinary Time, Marc Levinson investigates how the economic collapse of the 1970s marked a radical turning point in global economics - and paved the way for the political and financial troubles of the present. He begins with the story of the visionary policymakers who rebuilt the global economy from the ruins of World War Two, bringing unprecedented affluence to populations from Washington to Berlin, Nairobi to Tokyo. Then he examines why a series of shocks caused this fragile system to collapse, giving way to an era of uncertainty and political extremism that we are still grappling with now.

Fifty Things That Made the Modern Economy

Author: Tim Harford
Publishing date: 2017
Who thought up paper money? How did the contraceptive pill change the face of the legal profession? Why was the horse collar as important for human progress as the steam engine? How did the humble spreadsheet turn the world of finance upside-down? The world economy defies comprehension. A continuously-changing system of immense complexity, it offers over ten billion distinct products and services, doubles in size every fifteen years, and links almost every one of the planet's seven billion people. It delivers astonishing luxury to hundreds of millions. It also leaves hundreds of millions behind, puts tremendous strains on the ecosystem, and has an alarming habit of stalling. Nobody is in charge of it. Indeed, no individual understands more than a fraction of what's
