Don't Buy It: The Trouble with Talking Nonsense about the Economy

Anat Shenker-Osorio argues that the way we talk about economics is often misleading and counterproductive. He contends that our language and metaphors can shape public opinion and policy, and that a more effective approach is needed to win debates about economic issues.

This book offers a new perspective on how to engage in economic discourse, suggesting alternative frames and metaphors that can help to build support for progressive policies. By examining the role of language in shaping our understanding of the economy, Shenker-Osorio provides a valuable guide for anyone looking to make a more informed contribution to public debate.
