{"product_id":"9781847423467","title":"Ferraris for All: In Defence of Economic Progress","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe growth of the economy and the spread of prosperity are increasingly seen as problematic rather than positive—a trend Daniel Ben-Ami has termed “growth skepticism.” Prosperity is accused of encouraging greed, damaging the environment, causing unhappiness, and widening social inequalities. \u003ci\u003eFerraris for All \u003c\/i\u003eis a rejoinder to the growth skeptics. Using examples from a range of countries, including the US, the author argues that society as a whole benefits from greater affluence. Action is needed—but to increase abundance and spread it worldwide, not to limit prosperity, as the skeptics would have it. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe lively and provocative hardback edition was published to widespread coverage in 2010, and triggered debate and dissent in equal measure. This much-anticipated paperback edition includes a vigorous response from the author to the spirited discussion provoked by its controversial arguments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Policy Press at the Univ of Bristol","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47032664031472,"sku":"9781847423467","price":67.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781847423467_p0.jpg?v=1769894797","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781847423467","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
