### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Superb Summation of Gilders Information Theory of Economics
*by M***D on September 6, 2024*

This book acts as a summation and extension of Gilder's alternative option to mainstream/orthodox economics - the Information Theory of Economics - ITE. The book refines this theory down to its core essence and is accessible to most although some may find themselves needing to refer to previous works on the ITE by Gilder to give added background and understanding. In this edition he introduces the concept of 'time-prices' which completes the theory by measuring the creation of new knowledge by time - 'you pay in dollars and cents but the true cost is in hours and minutes' needed to work to pay for the good or service at hand. A deeply philosophical and practical look at the nature and creation of wealth that once again elevates the non-material characteristics and qualities of humans that generate material wealth and abundance. WEALTH = KNOWLEDGE, GROWTH = LEARNING, MONEY = TIME. The key element in all of this is SURPISE which is the effect of true CREATIVITY and therefore INNOVATION.For some of us GILDERITES, not quite the Magnum Opus we were perhaps anticipating and I felt that the transcript was perhaps over edited/refined taking away some of the trademark Gilder incisiveness and visionary dimension to make the concepts and book more accessible to a wider audience. I would have liked him to connect the content with some of his writing on 'mind over matter' and creativity of the mind and more on the negation of marxism etc to give more of a broader-based visionary dimension which is Gilders trademark. However, the book is well thought through and presented from what can be a very complex topic/s and is made crystal clear for new and former readers and followers of Gilder and/or the field of economics. The book is less than 200 pages so very accessible for these compelling ideas and a much superior framework for economic thinking and understanding of the structure of reality that always exerts itself regardless of mainstream economics attempts to manipulate the economy towards certain ends and to short-cut the innovation process and how wealth and wellbeing is really created and achieved.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant author and topic - takes the complicated and makes it understandable
*by K***R on November 14, 2024*

Gilder provides a very optimistic and bright future for the next generation and beyond.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Time value of wealth
*by D***K on September 10, 2024*

Gilder continues from his previous book. If you wish to understand our future and current economy this book will be a big help.
