When Economyths was first published in 2010, David Orrell showed how mainstream economics is based on key myths such as fair competition, rational behaviour, stability & eternal growth
- & how these myths lead paradoxically to their opposites: inequality, an irrational economy, financial instability & a collision with nature`s limits. Since then, we`ve had Occupy, political upheaval, flash crashes in financial markets, the warmest few years in recorded history
- & a growing chorus demanding fundamental reform. So how has economics responded? In this revised & expanded edition, Orrell shows how the ten myths still dominate economics. He reveals their roots in thought that goes back to the ancient Greeks, making them hard to dislodge. & he uncovers, demolishes & develops an alternative to the greatest economyth of all
- the one that will lead to the collapse of orthodox economics.

As on the TOP25 maps, the Tour de l’ Oisans (GR 54) is marked but not the whole course of it is included in this title.LAMINATED & ENCAPSULATED WALL MAPS:- LAMINATED wall maps have a thin layer of plastic usually applied to the printed side only.

They are more rigid & heavier than laminated maps of the same size. They are damp-proof & do not crinkle in humid conditions. Encapsulation gives the map a shiny surface, similar to being displayed behind glass.- PLEASE NOTE: many publishers & retailers often use these two terms interchangeably. Our map titles & descriptions follow the definitions provided above. ...
