Zaphu Forum: “The Future and Its Enemies” by Virginia Postrel

free ipod · 1 year ago

There would be no Google, YouTube, or iPhone without dynamists, no life-saving medicine or disease-resistant crops without people willing to pursue their curiosities and take risks. An economy such as ours requires dynamism to flourish and is forever in danger of stagnating under the weight of stasist government policies. lt isn’t often that a book so thoroughly defends the world of scientific and technological change that individuals such as myself champion. Every technophile should read this book and arm themselves for the fight for the future.
