As has been projected within this book, today the global health and wellness market is estimated at slightly over $5 trillion in annual GDP. Economic analysts have projected it to grow to as much as $7 trillion by 2027. As we are now halfway through 2023, this leads us to calculate that we will witness the appearance of $2 trillion in new dollars of economic activity within this rapidly expanding sector of the global economy.

But, as Geoff Mulgan argues in this compelling, imaginative, and important book, the economic crisis also presents a historic opportunity to choose a radically different future for capitalism, one that maximizes its creative power and minimizes its destructive force.

The bailouts during the recent financial crisis enraged the public. They felt unfair - and counterproductive: people who take risks must be allowed to fail. If we reward firms that make irresponsible investments, aren't we encouraging them to continue to act irresponsibly?
