The Bleeding Edge by Bob Hughes
Capitalism likes us to believe in the steady, inevitable march of progress, from the abacus to the iPad. But the historical record tells of innumerable roads not taken, all of which could have led to better worlds, and still can. In The Bleeding Edge, Bob Hughes argues that prioritising equality would develop superior and more diverse technologies that would lead to a richer more sustainable world.
