Life After Growth by Tim Morgan
How the Global Economy Really Works and Why 200 Years of Growth Are Over
The book delves into the intricate relationship between economic growth and energy consumption, arguing that the era of perpetual economic expansion is nearing its end due to diminishing energy returns. It explores the concept of "energy economics," emphasizing how traditional economic models fail to account for the finite nature of resources and the critical role energy plays in sustaining growth. The narrative challenges conventional economic wisdom, urging a reevaluation of societal priorities and advocating for a transition towards more sustainable practices in anticipation of a post-growth world.
