Story
A thousand years of history and contemporary evidence make one thing clear. Progress depends on the choices we make about technology. New ways of organizing production and communication can either serve the narrow interests of an elite or become the foundation for widespread prosperity. With their breakthrough economic theory and manifesto for a better society, Acemoglu and Johnson provide the vision needed to reshape how we innovate and who really gains from technological advances.

Story
Even after the ruinous financial crisis of 2008, America is still beset by the depredations of an oligarchy that is now bigger, more profitable, and more resistant to regulation than ever. Anchored by six megabanks, which together control assets amounting to more than 60 percent of the country's gross domestic product, these financial institutions (now more emphatically "too big to fail") continue to hold the global economy hostage.

Story
In order to illuminate the fallacies of economism, James Kwak first offers a primer on supply and demand, market equilibrium, and social welfare: the underpinnings of most popular economic arguments. Then he provides a historical account of how economism became a prevalent mode of thought in the United States - focusing on the people who packaged Econ 101 into sound bites that were then repeated until they took on the aura of truth.

Story
Bitter fighting over deficits, taxes, and spending bedevils Washington, D.C., even as partisan gridlock has brought the government to the brink of default. Yet the more politicians on both sides of the aisle rant and the citizenry fumes, the more things seem to remain the same. White House Burning looks squarely at the burgeoning national debt and proposes to defuse its threat to our well-being without forcing struggling middle-class families and the elderly into poverty.

Ausgerechnet ihre Herkunft, die ihr bislang immer im Weg stand, wird für die junge Cara zum Ticket in ein besseres Leben: Der charmante Wissenschaftler und Firmenmogul Adam Bosch sucht Menschen aus prekären Verhältnissen, denn er hat einen Weg gefunden, in parallele Welten zu reisen - doch dieser Weg steht nur denen offen, die in der Parallelwelt bereits tot sind.

Story
Wieso unterwerfen wir uns den Zielen von Technologieführern, die wir nicht gewählt haben, und denken, dabei handele es sich um Fortschritt?, fragen die zwei MIT-Professoren und Bestsellerautoren Daron Acemoglu und Simon Johnson. Die verbesserte Landwirtschaft im Mittelalter, später die industrielle Revolution und heute die künstliche Intelligenz - im Laufe der Geschichte wurde der technologische Wandel stets als Haupttriebkraft für das Gemeinwohl angesehen.
