Description
Book SynopsisClark and Fast invented and created Qualitative Economics because people need to know what they are doing through interactions in their daily life. Economics is not just about statistics, data and numbers, but more about the meaning of this information. We provide everything from the definition of Qualitative Economics (QE) to the use of it in our daily lives, which includes everything we do daily from families, relatives and friends to work, vacations and hobbies.
Trade ReviewWhether one agrees or not with the thesis, this is a book well worth reading. It provides a new perspective on the traditional view that dominates the field of economics. For anyone willing to be challenged, I highly recommend this book. -- James Barth, PhD, Lowder Eminent Scholar in Finance, Auburn University, Senior Finance Fellow, Milken Institute, Fellow of the Wharton Financial Institutions Center, Co-Editor of Journal of Financial Economic Policy
"Dr. Woodrow Woody Clark and I have worked together for more than two decades on solutions to global sustainability and climate change challenges. Above all, Woody understands the economics, costs, financing and ROI (both economically and environmentally) that are needed to turn vision into reality. His work in creating qualitative economics has done a lot to change economics from a field of study into a science, especially as it relates to our energy needs and uses. What does clean energy mean, for example? He demonstrates that there is no clean coal and that natural gas is not truly clean either. These words, terms and numbers must be defined, examined and used to reverse the destruction of the earth, water and air. That is what this book is about and what Woody has brought into the mainstream conversation with his work on Circular Economics. This book provides cases and ways to make our planet, and its economy, green and sustainable for the long term. Our lives and our childrens lives depend upon learning new ways to see the world and taking action based on this knowledge NOW." -- Terry Tamminen, Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation, Executive Director of the Foundation
