Description

Everyone wants to be happy...don't they? Everyone seeks fulfilment in life...don't they? Unfortunately, this is not the common state in life today and much is due to the human failing of greed. This book offers a solution. Science explains and understands the world of matter and philosophy explains and understands the world of spirit. Economics is the meeting place of these two worlds. Tippett provides the bridge between these two realms. It is a necessary to do so, to ensure the rule of justice. This book is aimed at presenting a common-sense, first-principles, philosophical perspective on a vital subject that seems to have lost its way. There is such a thing as justice, there is such a thing as truth; and these two need not be lost forever.

We are going to be doing a podcast with John Tippett and will have a social media campaign to accompany this book's release.

About the Author
John Tippett's formal Training as an economist began at the University of Melbourne. An upbringing on a family farm in North western Victoria, Australia and early studies in agricultural science had a large influence on forming values of self-reliance, responsibility and practicality, all of which Interpenetrate his thoughts and writings on economics. As an active member of the school of philosophy in Melbourne of over 30 years, has been an even greater influence on his writings.

Reviews
Economics is not about measuring artificial constructs such as GDP, or inflation, nor whether stock prices follow a geometric brownian motion. Economics concerns human welfare, and the best mechanism to achieve the fairest outcome which preserves our civilisation." Dr Kim Sawyer; "I'm really enjoying reading John's book "A Philosophers take on Economics", absolutely spot on for what is happening today. I'm pretty sure it's the only book I've read by an economist (philosopher) that I could understand! And I sub-majored in economics many years ago at Melbourne Uni." Grant Tenni; "I 'Saw the Cat' whilst reading John Tippett's book in April. Now a proud 'Georgist' currently reading Progress and Poverty." Gerald Vandermeer

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
