Associative Economics by Gary Lamb, AWSNA
As he shares in the introduction, Gary Lamb has been exploring questions of how to transform our relationships with money and economics for much of his life. In this insightful book, Gary leads us on a clear journey to deepen our understanding of the contributions Rudolf Steiner has made to economic thought. From a basic clear introduction of the threefold nature of social life, to more practical aspects of its relationship to work in education and in an organization, Gary provides a wealth of insight to help us transform our individual and organizational relationship to money and economic life.
Each chapter is a simple read and can stand on its own. As a whole, the book is a good short course in Associative Economics.
