Join us on March 27 for a Long Now Talk with Derek Thompson & Ezra Klein on their new book Abundance and how we can understand the abundance agenda in the context of the next and last 10,000 years, in conversation with Michael Pollan. Learn more:
It's finally here: ABUNDANCE, the new book I wrote with @ezraklein, is out March 18. I am so excited for people to read this book—and if you're in NYC, DC, Boston, SF, LA, Los Altos, Chicago (or Seattle, Atlanta, Raleigh, Portland...), I'm excited to talk to you this spring. ABUNDANCE is a book of history, economics, political commentary, and even a dash of philosophy. It's a deep critique of how liberalism has gone wrong in the last 50 years—and a vision of an American future that prioritizes housing affordability, cheap clean energy supply, government that *actually works*, an invention agenda to accelerate scientific breakthroughs that save and improve our lives, and technology policy that allows those breakthroughs to be enjoyed by the most people.
