Dispatches from an Alternative Present from the no. 1 bestselling author
'A landmark work' Brian Eno
Imagine a world with no banks. No stock market. No tech giants. No billionaires.
Imagine if Occupy and Extinction Rebellion actually won.
In Another Now world-famous economist, Yanis Varoufakis, shows us what such a world would look like. Far from being a fantasy, he describes how it could have come about - and might yet. But would we really want it?
Varoufakis's boundary-breaking new book confounds expectations of what the good society would look like and confronts us with the greatest question: are we able to build a better society, despite our flaws.
'One of my few heroes. As long as people like Varoufakis are around, there still is hope' Slavoj Žižek

Combining a provocative thought-experiment with a deeply original sci-fi narrative, this book is both visionary in its search for new possibilities and realistic in its embrace of the complexities of our human nature

I could not recommend this more. If you're looking for a sense of optimism, a sense of political possibility, this book is very important

The reason Varoufakis seems to have captured the imaginations of so many is that his words about the European crisis speak universal truths about democracy, capitalism and social policy
