Edible Economics brings the sort of creative fusion that spices up a great kitchen to the often too-disciplined subject of economics

For decades, a single, free-market philosophy has dominated global economics. But this intellectual monoculture is bland and unhealthy.

Bestselling author and economist Ha-Joon Chang makes challenging economic ideas delicious by plating them alongside stories about food from around the world, using the diverse histories behind familiar food items to explore economic theory. For Chang, chocolate is a lifelong addiction, but more exciting are the insights it offers into postindustrial knowledge economies; and while okra makes Southern gumbo heart-meltingly smooth, it also speaks of capitalism’s entangled relationship with freedom.

Myth-busting, witty, and thought-provoking, Edible Economics serves up a feast of bold ideas about globalization, climate change, immigration, austerity, automation, and why carrots need not be orange. It shows that getting to grips with the economy is like learning a recipe: when we understand it, we can adapt and improve it—and better understand our world.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"The only book I've ever read that made me laugh, salivate and re-evaluate my thoughts about economics–all at the same time. A funny, profound and appetising volume."—Brian Eno, composer
"A brilliant riposte to the myth that policymakers can survive on plain neoliberal fare. Edible Economics is a moveable feast of alternative economic ideas wrapped up in witty stories about food from around the world. Ha-Joon Chang proves yet again that he is one of the most exciting economists at work today."—Owen Jones
"A fascinating stew of food, history and economics."—Tim Spector

Más relevante  
A bit weird, yet interesting twisting of ideas, to try to combine recipes with a lot of very interesting and valuable information about the history and the economy of various parts of the world.

Really Enjoyed it ... I would definitely recommend it and recommend any book by Ha-Joon Chan!

Interesting but Weird Combination

Basing different economic theories and ideas around foods made some of the ideas palatable. Great listen.

Enjoyed the connections

It’s a good mix between food and economic. It’s a good comparison and worth a reread, carefully

A good book to reread
