      Ten years of research, lauded by reviewers all over the world, the most influential book in recent memory but–stop the presses–somebody named “Helen” on the internet has declared it to be “shit”!

        it’s nothing but Keynesianism for the 21st century. The solutions he proposes are weak – any state that implemented them would see massive capital flight within seconds. Capitalism isn’t a system can be fixed with a Keynesian bandage – capitalism is broke beyond repair.

      If they managed to sell it at €39 they must have made a fortune. The hard back has been €2x on amazon including delivery for months.

      I kinda marvel at Arnotts customer base though. Travel to them, find product in store, queue to pay, pay over a third extra for the goods, leave, go home. Alternatively, find it on 5 minutes on Amazon for substantially less and have it delivered to you.

    I also agree with Helen. Just because his book has been lauded and acclaimed, though criticized in equal measure doesn’t mean it’s a revolutionary book. It’s a sad state of affairs that his book/ideas were given so much consieration at all. Real revolutionary ideas to ‘fix’ capitalism probably would not get published or be accepted/debated by the very ones who want to keep their capital and status quo.
