In How Progress Ends, Carl Benedikt Frey challenges the conventional belief that economic and technological progress is inevitable.
Carl offers a remarkable and fascinating journey across the globe, spanning the past 1,000 years, to explain why some societies flourish and others fail in the wake of rapid technological change. Through a rich narrative that weaves together history, economics and technology, How Progress Ends reveals that managing the future requires us to draw the right lessons from the past.
