Review:
An entertaining overview of economic thought from WWII to the 2000s witty and energetic.” Publishers Weekly

Bright, accessible A thoughtful examination of the mechanics of our one-click world.” Kirkus Reviews

This book is essential reading for any non-economist who wants to understand how markets shape our world, including transformational marketplaces like Amazon, Airbnb, and eBay.” Reid Hoffman, chairman of LinkedIn

With great clarity and with many vivid examples, The Inner Lives of Markets explains how the post World War II worldly philosophers (i.e., economists) have reconceived the workings of our economic system. That reconception takes us far from the black and white of Adam Smith and Karl Marx; yet more interestingly, it is in many shades of gray.” George Akerlof, Nobel Laureate in Economics

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. THE ECONOMIC REVOLUTION ISN'T JUST DRIVEN BY TECHNOLOGY. IT'S ABOUT MARKETS.'.a quick, and exceedingly engaging, tour of economic history.' Financial TimesThe past twenty-five years have witnessed a remarkable shift in how we get the stuff we want. If you've ever owned a business, rented a flat, or shopped online, you've had a front-row seat for this revolution-in-progress. Breakthrough companies like Amazon and Uber have disrupted the old ways and made the economy work better - all thanks to technology.At least that's how the story of the modern economy is usually told. But in this lucid, wry book, Ray Fisman and Tim Sullivan show that the revolution is bigger than tech: it is really a story about the transformation of markets. From the auction theories that power Google's ad sales algorithms to the models that online retailers use to prevent internet fraud, even the most high-tech modern businesses are empowered by theory first envisioned by economists.And we're all participants in this revolution. Every time you book a room on Airbnb, hire a car on Uber, or click on an ad, you too are reshaping our social institutions and our lives.THE INNER LIVES OF MARKETS is necessary reading for the modern world: it reveals the blueprint for how we work, live, and shop, and offers wisdom for how to do it better. Think Freakonomics meets The Undercover EconomistThe Inner Lives of Markets is a journey into the mysterious corners of everyday economics. Who buys, who sells, why it matters, when it works, and what to do when it breaks. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
