Synopsis

Written in a unique and picaresque style and with great breadth of insight, Traffic and Weather Together Next represents the first attempt to chart a course beyond neoliberal economics that preserves the gains of industrial society while liberating mankind from the ennui of modern existence. Both conceptually dense and startlingly brisk of pace, combining a learned survey of economic history with almost painful personal reflections, finding syntheses between town and country, abstract and concrete, Marx and von Mises, the author leaves nothing out and nothing to chance. This is one of those books that we almost thought could no longer be written, a devastating critique of a complex field by a learned amateur that needs only to be read before its truth becomes apparent to all. Answering the call of Rerum Novarum to outline a Catholic theory of economics that is true, ethical, and productive, this book is a modern masterpiece and an instant classic that will appeal especially to the younger generations. The clarion call to "pay off your debt, buy back your job, don't waste your life" will resonate with many in these economically troubled times. This is the book that breaks the modern world; this is the book that frees the modern soul.
