The Genesis of Value: Philosophical Foundations of Economic Paradox (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798276517278)

This foundational volume lays the philosophical and moral groundwork for the entire series. It explores the central paradox of how the pursuit of wealth, when unchecked, consumes the very systems that create it. The volume delves into the economic imperative of productive capital, the societal and ethical dimensions of wealth, and the theoretical integration of frameworks required to understand the deep structural issues facing the global economy. It is the essential starting point for a systemic analysis of modern economic challenges.
