Imagine a world with no banks. No stock market. No tech giants. No billionaires.

Imagine if Occupy and Extinction Rebellion actually won.

In Another Now, world-famous economist Yanis Varoufakis shows us what such a world would look like. Far from being a fantasy, he describes how it could have come about—and might yet. But would we really want it?

Intriguing exploration of an alternative world

A predominant critique of lefties, is that we are all bark no bite, that is all critique, no problem solving. This book, as well as any I’ve read, explores the solutions to the disease of capitalism. It engages with the lazy critiques against worker-owned enterprise, and displays how they can work on a global scale. It theorizes a replacement to our nanny domestic banking systems, as well as our predatory global banking system (IMF). Splendid work Mr. Varoufakis!

Solutions!

It is easy (and necessary) to criticize out current world. What is difficult (and necessary) is to offer a compelling and realizable alternative. This novel does that.

A compelling and practical vision of a better world.

A fresh commentary on global systems and economics cleverly packaged in a story of a dynamic friendship with just enough science fiction to appetize the futurist in me. Well done, Yanis.

Brilliant

Will really make you think about the supposed inevitability of society’s ills. Has a fun sci-fi conceit. Narrator is excellent.

Thought-Provoking!
