If there's one thing the Internet's changed forever, it's the relative difficulty and cost of getting a bunch of people in the same place, working for the same goal. Sometimes (often!), you need to organize to make a difference. I hope that readers of this book will be inspired to dig deeper into the subjects of 'behavioral economics' (and related subjects like 'neuroeconomics') and to start asking hard questions about how we end up with the stuff we own, and what it costs our human brothers and sisters to make those goods, and why we think we need them.īut it's a poor politics that can only express itself by choosing to buy or not buy something. For the Win connects the dots between the way we shop, the way we organize, and the way we play, and why some people are rich, some are poor, and how we seemed to get stuck there. For the Win is a book about economics (a subject that suddenly got a lot more relevant about halfway through the writing of this book, when the world's economy slid unceremoniously into the toilet and got stuck there), justice, politics, games and labor. See the end of this file for the complete legalese.įor the Win is my second young adult novel, and, like my 2008 book Little Brother, it is meant to do more than tell a story.
