Unsung Heroes of the Market

The 24 Underrated Economists You Need to Know

The Business of Freedom tells the story of Black enterprise through the lives of the people who built it. Some, like Booker T. Washington and Madam C. J. Walker, are familiar figures in the history of Black business. But many are lesser-known strivers whose ambitions briefly illuminated the possibilities of the age. From the hopeful dawn of emancipation to the bustle of Harlem, award-winning historian Shennette Garrett-Scott follows Black entrepreneurs who carved opportunity out of exclusion to build banks, grocery stores, cotton mills, and real estate empires. Their successes were real, but so were the limits imposed by segregation, unequal access to capital, and the violence that shadowed Black prosperity. The Business of Freedom reveals Black capitalism as a strategy for both individual and collective empowerment-and shows why free enterprise alone could never deliver the freedom its champions promised.

Every morning, Craig Wahl walks his dog Winston through quiet, tree-lined streets, and every morning, Winston stops, sniffs, backtracks, and finds his own way forward. It is not a straight line. Neither is leadership.The Walk: Leadership When There Is No Finish Line delivers the unpolished truth: Leadership is an endless, messy, and grueling walk where clarity runs out and pressure stays high. Drawing on his own experience navigating bankruptcies and IP lawsuits and scaling a team from eight to nearly three hundred employees, Wahl maps the terrain leaders actually walk: trust rebuilt daily, accountability nobody wants to own, and the quiet endurance required to keep showing up.The Walk bypasses academic theory to address what most leadership guides skip: toxicity without villains, high-performer alignment, and the discomfort of leading outside the room. Through practical tools like the "Failure Audit" and the "Toxicity Response Ladder," executives learn to turn reflection into action."Leadership doesn’t break people because they don’t care enough. It breaks them because they care deeply and no one prepared them for the cost of that care."When corporate doors chain shut and proximity no longer guarantees alignment, only one question remains: What will a leader be remembered for? Step onto the pavement and discover how to keep walking.

Leadership When There Is No Finish Line

The Walk

Decisions are everywhere--from a group's choice of pizza to a decision on a family vacation to the elections of political leaders. Central to the functioning of our organizations is the belief that these decisions reflect the wishes of voters. Yet most voting rules are unreliable and can lead to unfair outcomes. And, while a large body of academic literature describes the flaws and limitations of standard voting methods, little is known about why they occur.

In Fair Voting Methods, Donald G. Saari explores the difficulties that have plagued social choice theory for over seventy-five years. Focusing on ranked choice voting and group decision-making, Saari expands on Arrow's impossibility theorem and presents a more precise statement: all standard voting rules either fail to always rank the candidates to determine who is preferred to whom, or the voting outcomes can result in inferior choices that are not what the voters wanted. Saari then identifies and resolves the structures that negatively impact voting systems. While Arrow's seminal result asserted that the problems of standard voting systems are unavoidable, Saari makes a bold and compelling case that there are indeed usable fair voting methods. He introduces one such method that achieves Arrow's objectives of always ranking candidates with outcomes that reflect voters' intent. The book concludes by applying insights from voting theory into other topics where parts are also assembled into wholes, including judgement aggregation, corporate structures, crime prevention, the US Electoral College, and standard scientific procedures.

A lesson-packed success story for the twenty-first century, from a ninth-generation Kentuckian who imported the Silicon Valley playbook to the heartland, revealing how the entrepreneurial mindset can be applied anywhere, and even to our most stubborn industries. In his case: trash. When Nate Morris decided to build a business, he wasn’t looking to disrupt—he was looking for a problem to solve. Morris believed that the bigger the problem, the more the market would reward him for solving it. And one of the biggest problems, he came to believe, was one that every person, business, and community dealt with on a daily basis, but which was often overlooked: waste. American Trash is the moving story of how a ninth-generation Kentuckian—a boy who grew up being called “white trash”—applied the innovative thinking we associate with Silicon Valley startups to the ancient problem of waste. Raised on the scrappy resourcefulness of his grandfather, president of their local autoworkers’ union, Morris built Rubicon, a waste management company powered by digital technology. Unlike the bloated industry titans of yesterday, Rubicon was asset light: It wouldn’t own landfills, so it would be free of the perverse incentive to fill the land with chemical-laden trash, and it wouldn’t own trucks, so it would support “mom and pop” hauler businesses. Most important, it would be based in Georgia and Kentucky, thousands of miles from the near-sighted culture of Silicon Valley. In telling his story, Morris shows how he combined the great tradition of American entrepreneurship with the lessons of the digital economy—and did it far from the coastal bastions of the technology elite. The result is a blueprint for those seeking to tackle our biggest challenges with creative, free-market solutions.

Hard-Earned Lessons from a Heartland Entrepreneur

American Trash

A revelatory financial history showing that today's massive Islamic finance industry was preceded by decades of Muslim interest banking across Eurasia and Africa. Since the 1970s, the now multi-trillion-dollar Islamic finance industry has offered interest-free banking to Muslims around the world. Its proponents maintain that Islamic law strictly forbids all forms of financial interest. Many academic accounts echo this perspective, assuming that before the 1970s, Muslims either avoided interest banking out of deep-seated religious hostility or practiced it in defiance of religious stricture. Yet as Michael O'Sullivan argues, these narratives overlook rich traditions of Muslim interest banking that preceded Islamic finance. In the early twentieth century, the first modern Muslim-owned interest banks appeared across Eurasia and Africa-from India to the Ottoman Empire, Tsarist Russia, Habsburg Bosnia, Tunisia, Egypt, Iran, Palestine, and Indonesia. Viewed as a solution to Muslim economic distress, these banks intensified debates among Muslims about both the Islamic legal tradition and acceptable economic practices. While interest banks raised suspicions among some Islamic legal scholars, others explicitly defended their legality and encouraged Muslim entrepreneurs. Ultimately, O'Sullivan shows that the Islamic finance industry's commitment to interest-free banking was a product of contingency as much as principle. It was a combination of bank failures, high rates of indebtedness, and changing religious interpretations that eventually led many Muslims to reject interest banking and demand a replacement more commensurate with an "Islamic economy." Even so, the religious debates inaugurated by the first Muslim interest banks persist to this day. A vibrant portrait of economic life in the so-called peripheries of capital, The Borrower's Refuge is a major contribution to the global history of finance.

Some connections uplift. Some deplete. All leave a mark.&nbsp;Lasting Footprints is a practical guide for professionals navigating work, leadership, and everyday relationships who want to become more intentional about the impact they have on others. Drawing on decades of experience in leadership development, organizational culture, and adult learning, Colleen Peterson blends research, real-world stories, and accessible insight to clarify what healthy relationships look like and what quietly erodes them.Positioned at the intersection of psychology, leadership, and human connection, Lasting Footprints helps emerging and experienced leaders understand the influence they carry across teams, careers, and personal relationships. It introduces a clear framework for identifying “skunks”—toxic patterns and draining dynamics that undermine trust, confidence, and collaboration—and offers practical ways to shift toward healthier interaction patterns.With reflection prompts and memorable models, the guidebook supports professionals in creating a Personal Connection Plan that strengthens both professional effectiveness and personal well-being. Rather than leaving relationships to chance, it encourages intentional choices that improve how people show up in every environment they move through.Grounded in research and real experience, Lasting Footprints challenges professionals to notice the impact they leave behind and shape their relationships with greater intention.&nbsp;

Leadership isn't a gift bestowed on a fortunate few. It's a set of skills that can be learned, strengthened, and refined over time. Yet most leadership development fails. People attend workshops, read books, receive coaching, and return to work inspired—only to find themselves repeating the same behaviors under pressure. Lasting leadership growth requires more than good advice. Drawing on nearly two decades as a clinical psychologist, executive coach, and founder of a global leadership consulting firm, Jonathan Kirschner offers a fresh perspective on one of business's oldest questions: How does someone become a great leader? Combining behavioral science, executive coaching, organizational psychology, and practical experience with thousands of leaders across hundreds of organizations, Leadership Actualization presents a comprehensive framework for developing leadership from the inside out. Along the way, readers will discover why leadership is learnable and how sustained behavioral change becomes possible. Whether you're an emerging manager, an experienced executive, an entrepreneur, or an executive coach, this book provides a practical roadmap for developing the capabilities required to lead yourself, influence others, and guide organizations through complexity and change.
