Apparently Ed Miliband's holiday reading includes Prosperity Without Growth by Tim Jackson - I think I'll join him. I've always wanted to understand how/if we can deal with what Keynes called 'the paradox of thrift'. I wonder if there are any answers here....
Tim Jackson's 20 minute TED talk is interesting. More philosophy than hard economics. Click here www.ted.com/talks/ and look for Tim Jackson's Economic Reality Check.
