Description: This controversial and counterintuitive new book examines why population growth and freedom to innovate make Earth's resources more, not less, abundant.
Review Quotes: "Many people think that superabundance is too good to be true. More of something can be a blessing, but to take the obvious counterexample, superabundance of fossil fuel is a potentially catastrophic curse. If doomsters could recognize the innovative capacity revealed by superabundance and boomsters could admit that the market can blindly misdirect that capacity, the two sides could agree that all it takes to sustain progress are small policy adjustments that point innovation in the right direction."--PAUL ROMER, Nobel Prize-winning economist and former chief economist, World Bank
