As economist Mariana Mazzucato shows, from Silicon Valley to Wall Street and beyond, foggy notions of value create confusion between rents and profits, reward extractors rather than creators, and distort the measurements of growth and GDP. Asset management companies profit exorbitantly off of income generated elsewhere; big pharma uses value-based pricing to justify astronomically high prices for vital medicines that are publicly funded. In the process, innovation suffers and inequality widens.\n\nThe Value of Everything reignites the debate over how we measure value in our society―and in so doing, shows how we can shape our economy to be more innovative and inclusive.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1541758242\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: HBSV.1541758242.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Mazzucato, Mariana\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book is in very good condition and has little to no writing, underlining, and or highlighting.
