{"product_id":"2940169555240","title":"Create Your Own Economy: The Path to Prosperity in a Disordered World","description":"How will we live well in a super-networked, information-soaked, yet predictably irrational world? The only way to know is to understand how the way we think is changing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs economist Tyler Cowen boldly shows in \u003ci\u003eCreate Your Own Economy\u003c\/i\u003e, the way we think now is changing more rapidly than it has in a very long time. Not since the Industrial Revolution has a man-made creation-in this case, the World Wide Web-so greatly influenced the way our minds work and our human potential. Cowen argues brilliantly that we are breaking down cultural information into ever-smaller tidbits, ordering and reordering them in our minds (and our computers) to meet our own specific needs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eCreate Your Own Economy\u003c\/i\u003e explains why the coming world of Web 3.0 is good for us; why social networking sites such as Facebook are so necessary; what's so great about \"Tweeting\" and texting; how education will get better; and why politics, literature, and philosophy will become richer. This is a revolutionary guide to life in the new world.","brand":"Tantor Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47116808716528,"sku":"2940169555240","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940169555240_p0.jpg?v=1763686652","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940169555240","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
