| Description |
In an era when the gears of the economy have ground to a virtual halt, writer, activist, and academic Raj Patel (2008's bestselling Stuffed and Starved) says we all need to start asking the fundamental but baffling question of why things cost what they do. His latest work, The Value of Nothing, uses some fundamental but forgotten economics and cutting-edge neuroeconomics to show how the price we pay for everything is systematically distorted. Patel clearly explains why the question "How much?" means far more than the price on the sticker. Presented by the Town Hall Center for Civic Life, with Elliott Bay Book Company.
