Book Review: ECONOVATION, FAKTOR’S INNOVATION MANIFESTO

Share this:

A great review of Econovation by Gregg Fraley. A quick excerpt:

I wish I had picked it up sooner because it’s a fascinating, erudite, bitingly funny, well researched, and I think important book.

Americans — Buy one now and send it to your Congressman. Tell him or her that if they don’t read it you’ll lash them with wet Chinese noodles at the door to their office.

European readers, there’s plenty to learn from Faktor’s manifesto about how to reinvent an economy. As the title suggests, it’s a blend of economic and innovation thinking, but it’s also about trends, and, ultimately about large scale ideas.
