The Eurasian Exchange That Transformed the Medieval World

Humanity's most spectacular era yet is increasingly within reach.So why are we doing everything we can to hold it back?The bestselling author of The Rational Optimist delivers a daring vision of the future - one that is potentially dazzling, but only if we stop sleepwalking into self-inflicted decline.We're on the brink of a truly spectacular explosion of productivity and prosperity, argues Matt Ridley, thanks to a combination of artificial intelligence, material science and genomic knowledge that is unprecedented in its scope and implications. With characteristic wit and ferocity, he confronts the irrational pessimism that dominates public discourse and examines the bureaucratic bloat, regulatory overreach, ideological superstition and crony capitalism that stand in the way.Optimistic in conclusion but unsparing in its analysis, The Flourishing is a rousing call to achieve and innovate by refusing to settle for a merely adequate future when a magnificent one is within reach.

The Rational Pessimist

Explains how, against the odds, pioneering start-ups have taken on established firms and revolutionised global commerce--with huge implications for the future of business.

A dazzling exploration of the phenomenon of prediction betting markets that asks: what happens when democracy becomes another commodity? For many, Donald Trump's decisive election victory over Kamala Harris in 2024 was a shock. Traditional polls had the race on a razor's edge. But, for those with eyes on prediction betting markets, a very different story was being told. In recent years, prediction markets have swept the world, fundamentally changing the nature of the gambling market, and making their youthful pioneers billionaires. Posed as binary 'Yes/No' questions about future events, prediction bets allow any difference of opinion - whether on politics, wars, assassinations or popular culture - to be financialised. But are these markets really a new phenomenon? What does it mean when markets get closer to the truth than the institutions we built to protect us? And what happens when those tasked with safeguarding democracy possess financial stakes in its volatility? From Renaissance Rome, where merchants wagered on papal conclaves, through London coffee house gossip during the Napoleonic Wars, to the Pentagon's ill-fated terrorism futures exchange, The Big Bet describes the full five-hundred-year arc of a permissive regime which no one designed and no one voted for. Drawing on deep expertise, Michael Auerbach examines how these markets are changing our world, and what they mean for the future of our democratic self-governance. Because they are not an anomaly - they are the logical endpoint of a society that has applied market capitalism to every aspect of life. And in a world when everything is a wager and nothing is off limits, knowing where the chips will fall matters more than ever.

Prediction Markets and the Future of Democracy

Daily Habits for Leading from Any Level

90 Days to Grow Your Influence

From Ann Handley, Wall Street Journal bestselling author of Everybody Writes, comes a smart, timely, clear-eyed guide to knowing when to speed up, when to slow down, and when the shortcut costs more than it saves. You already know how to go fast. What nobody taught you is when not to. In ASAP: As SLOW As Possible, Ann Handley rebels against the false urgency baked into modern work and life—and shows you how to recognize Slowments: the moments when slowing down is not weakness, hesitation, or delay. It's the smarter move. Because when everyone has access to the same shortcuts, the real edge is knowing when not to take them. With research, brain science, vivid storytelling, and Handley’s signature wit, ASAP: As SLOW As Possible reveals the hidden speed traps that weaken our judgment, creativity, and original thinking—especially in an age when AI makes the fastest path feel like the smartest one—and gives you a practical way to know when speed is serving you and when it’s taking you farther from what matters. You'll discover: <ul><li>The Hasty Progress Illusion—why motion can feel like mastery, even when nothing lasting is taking hold</li><li>The ASAP Matrix—how to know exactly when to autopilot, when to pause, and when a moment deserves more of you</li><li>The six Slowments in life and in work—the pivotal moments when slowing down changes what happens next</li><li>How to protect your judgment in a world eager to outsource it</li><li>When choosing analog leads to sharper ideas, wiser decisions, more creative approaches, stronger relationships, and meaningful work</li><li>How to stop confusing speed with progress—and start choosing the pace the moment actually requires</li></ul> ASAP: As SLOW As Possible reveals slowness as a generative force and for the first time gives you a way to harness life’s most important slow moments. Not by doing less, opting out, or becoming the kind of person who ferments things in a shed. But by knowing when speed helps—and when it hollows out the very thing you hoped it would serve. It’s time to choose the long road when the shortcut costs too much.

When to Take the Long Road in a Shortcut World

ASAP: As Slow as Possible

This book sets out to investigate how individuals within modern welfare states adopt distinct roles and identities when interacting with public organisations – as citizens who contribute to society, as consumers driven by personal preferences, and as customers demanding efficiency and responsiveness. It also considers the impact of these roles in shaping public sector institutions. &nbsp;Drawing on evidence from Sweden, the book examines the intricate and sometimes conflicting roles of citizens, consumers, and customers in the public sector, demonstrating how public institutions must simultaneously balance collective welfare, individual rights, and market logic in order to preserve democratic engagement and trust in public organisations.
 The book will appeal to scholars and students of public administration, public management and governance, as well as practitioners.
 Tom S. Karlsson
 is Associate Professor in Public Administration at Gothenburg University, Sweden.&nbsp;

Materialising the Digital

Where and how we pay is changing dramatically. This timely, innovative book navigates the so-called 'Cambrian explosion' of FinTech companies and more specifically to the emergence of Blockchain technologies and cryptocurrencies through the lens of the case of Ripple, a company in the field of cryptoassets and cross-border payments. Combining STS with human geography and political economy, it navigates the maelstrom of proliferating new and old payment infrastructure, to develop a theoretical and empirical 'infrastructural inversion' of money. Money does not just flow through or behave like an infrastructure, but rather it is an infrastructure, because it is predicated upon the existence of accounting and payment infrastructures of memory for its very existence. Using the concepts of active forms and dispositions from design and architecture, this nuanced book analyses how money's infrastructures act in the world materially, spatially, as objects and subjects of desire and as political and economic machines. If we want new forms of money for new forms of society, we need to think holistically and ecologically about the complex combinations of materiality, space, desire and political economies that money generates and propagates. Tracing the trajectory of a cryptoasset project from an alternative credit system to an interbank, cross-border company, the book moves beyond a Bitcoin-centric view of money. It reveals how alternative and mainstream, networked and sovereign forms of money have long been intertwined.
