Geoff Davies turns his
critical scientific gaze on contemporary
economic orthodoxy and finds it deeply deficient. His work makes a
strong case for a radical reconstruction of economic arrangements if we
are to live more fruitfully and harmoniously.
- Frank
Stilwell, Professor of Political Economy, University of Sydney.
Imagine a much more equal and
inclusive society than we have now. It has old-fashioned family values,
solid local communities, and full employment in an efficient and
sustainable market economy with a debt-free money supply and no
executive plunder. Impossible? Perhaps. But Geoff Davies' project is
distinguished by such commonsense, hard science, practicality,
surprise, fine writing and expert contempt for orthodox economics, it's
a joy to read for visionaries and sceptics alike.
- Hugh Stretton, Social Scientist

I find Davies’ arguments refreshing and convincing. They cannot be
ignored. … if Davies is even half right, we, the people, must urgently
modify the economic model which drives all of our financial
institutions, nearly all of our current politicians and all of our
public services.
