What do we get when we tell the story of economics? For 250 years, a ghostly hand-bloodied and invisible-has scripted our lives. Telling the story of economics like never before, Everyman makes legible the ethereal ink in which it's etched. A character-driven psychological drama, it presents economics' leading man, Neo, the textbook rational actor - with his apostles, Finn, the model 'finance bro,' Davos, globalization's ambassador, Wash, envoy to distant lands, and Tek, the quintessence of the tech industry - tracing their rise through the most significant moments of global economic history: the birth of capitalism to the Great Depression, the Financial Crisis to the ascent of populism. But with the by-the-book Gini and her sister, Palma, protesting the system, Tek contemplating a coup, Ordinary Joe losing patience, and a runaway monster, are they on the edge of a precipitous fall? Kaleidoscopic like global capitalism, Everyman blends fact and fiction, future and history, tragedy and comedy. It combines novelistic flair and cutting-edge research to offer a bold new vision, built on emotion and social cooperation. If we replace a strawman-economics' apocryphal protagonist-with flesh-and-blood, could we avert tragedy and alter the plot of capitalism? And, as Economic Man and Everyman battle for its soul, who, ultimately, is economics for?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PRH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43015977467984,"sku":"9780241541371","price":59.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0211\/2428\/files\/9780241541371_1.jpg?v=1791845926","url":"https:\/\/beaumarisbooks.com.au\/products\/everyman","provider":"Beaumaris Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
