Very interesting and the writing is understandable and well-structured. Was a little disappointed by the lack of solutions in the final chapter, but I guess this book aims more to kick-start a conversation.

Really interesting - I never thought I would be interested in economics but this presented such an innovative framework and was very informative. It was also very dense lol.

very important ideas and the last half was more fulfilling than the first with more concrete descriptions of how the ideas proposed in the book could be implemented. i found the writing style with excessive use of metaphors slightly tedious but i think that’s more of a personal preference.

Some good ideas mixed with bad examples and wishful thinking. The tragedy of the commons is referenced as basically not true. However the only examples of working commons that are given are examples on a small scale. That was never really the problem. The problem is getting it to work on a large scale.
There is a suggestion for redistributing land, with successful examples from South-Korea and South Africa. However no mention of how horrible wrong this went in Zimbabwe. Besides that is South Africa really doing that well?
There is also a suggestion for redistribution of wealth. Looking at myself the source of my wealth is what I know and how I think. Which is basically not that distributable. Basically a case is made for global basic income, to be paid for by global taxation of the wealthy. That this sounds outlandish and impossible is whisked away by stating that more things that seemed outlandish in the past, like gay rights, are now normal. Totaly forgetting that in large parts of the world gay rights are certainly not considered normal. So again it sounds more like wishful thinking based on one culture than having any root in reality.
Also the idea to create an economy were every ones needs are met and we take care of the environment sounds better in theory than in practice. What if I have the urgent need to dump 3 tons of plastic in the ocean every day? There goes the taking care of the environment or making sure everyone's needs are met. You can't have both in this case.
In conflict with the statement that we should take care of the environment is that all kind of solutions for other issues that are offered are based on using energy consuming crypto currencies.
