An Alternative Economic Theory Is Now Being Fashioned, Inspired By New Sciences Such As Complexity And Network Theory, Science-Related Movements Like Environmentalism, And Social Movements Like Feminism. The First Heroes Of This Revolution Include Astronauts, Student Protestors, Environmentalists, Rock Musicians, Feminists, Maverick Mathematicians, And Dissident Scientists.
