DESCRIPTION:Email strike.debt.bay.area@gmail.com a few days beforehand for the the 
 online invite.\nFor September, 2021 we will be reading the first two 
 sections of "The Origin of Wealth: The Radical Remaking of Economics and 
 What it Means for Business and Society." by Eric D. Beinhocker. (e.g. 
 Amazon, Powell's, possibly available in libraries.\n\n Over 6.4 billion 
 people participate in a $36.5 trillion global economy, designed and 
 overseen by no one. How did this marvel of self-organized complexity 
 evolve? How is wealth created within this system? And how can wealth be 
 increased for the benefit of individuals, businesses, and society? In The 
 Origin of Wealth, Eric D. Beinhocker argues that modern science provides a 
 radical perspective on these age-old questions, with far-reaching 
 implications. According to Beinhocker, wealth creation is the product of a 
 simple but profoundly powerful evolutionary formula: differentiate, select, 
 and amplify. In this view, the economy is a "complex adaptive system" in 
 which physical technologies, social technologies, and business designs 
 continuously interact to create novel products, new ideas, and increasing 
 wealth... A landmark book that shatters conventional economic theory, The 
 Origin of Wealth will rewire our thinking about how we came to be 
 here-- \n\nStrike Debt Bay Area hosts this non-technical book group 
 discussion monthly on new and radical economic thinking. Previous readings 
 have included Doughnut Economics, Limits, Banking on the 
 People, Capital and Its Discontents, How to Be an Anti-Capitalist in the 
 21st Century, The Deficit Myth,  Revenge Capitalism, the Edge of Chaos 
 blog symposium , Re-enchanting the World: Feminism and the Politics of the 
 Commons, The Optimist’s Telescope, Mission Economy: A Moonshot Guide to 
 Changing Capitalism, and Exploring Degrowth.\n
