'Big and timely' Sunday Times
'A truly amazing story' Financial Times
'A real pleasure' Economist
From the first obsidian blades that traded 9000 years ago to today's hyper-connected global system, the story of the world economy has been one of "more": more goods; more trade; more prosperity. But with the rise of tariffs as a political weapon and the break-up of the post-1945 international order, many of the factors that made the global economy produce "more" are now under threat.
All the more reason to take the long view. In this fully revised and updated edition of the critically-acclaimed More , Philip Coggan shows us how, at every step, our wealth has been created by connections between people.
From medieval cottages to hi-tech hydroponic farms, prehistorical Chinese burial mounds to modern central banks, this is broad-sweep history at its compelling best, and a timely reminder of the power of openness for a more prosperous world.
