Power and Progress: Our Thousand-Year Struggle over Technology & Prosperity

Power and Progress is a groundbreaking book that challenges conventional wisdom on technology, economics, and history.

Authors Daron Acemoglu and James Johnson offer a bold reinterpretation of how technological advancements have shaped society, arguing that the path of innovation has been captured by a select few elites, leading to stagnant incomes for working people and undermining democracy.

However, they provide a vision for how these advances can be harnessed for the greater good, empowering individuals and democratizing tools.

This book is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the true impact of technology on society and how to create a better future for all.
