Strategy guru and world-renowned business thinker Roger Martin starkly outlines why our American system of democratic capitalism is in danger--because it has long been viewed as a kind of "perfectible machine" of economic efficiency. We need to shift to treating it as a complex adaptive system, balancing efficiency with resilience. This book shows how.

  • A provocative big-picture argument from a leading business thinker.
  • Timely--there is currently hot debate about the future of capitalism.
  • An engaging, impressive synthesis of business, economic, and political thinking and context.
  • Compact, essayistic, and well-written.

Audience: Business leaders, thoughtful senior executives and managers, policy wonks, intelligent general readers interested in the economy, political economy, and the future of capitalism.
