THE PASSION ECONOMY: The New Rules for Thriving in the Twenty-First Century by Adam Davidson (Brooklyn, NY): The brilliant creator of NPR's Planet Money podcast and award-winning New Yorker staff writer explains our current economy: laying out its internal logic and revealing the transformative hope it offers for millions of people to thrive as they never have before. Contrary to what you may have heard, the middle class is not dying and robots are not stealing our jobs. In fact, the twenty-first-century economic paradigm offers new ways of making money, fresh paths toward professional fulfillment, and unprecedented opportunities for curious, ambitious individuals to combine the things they love with their careers. Drawing on the stories of average people doing exactly this, as well as the latest academic research, Davidson shows us how the twentieth-century economy of scale has given way in this century to an economy of passion. An indispensable road map and a refreshingly optimistic take on our economic future.
