Jonas JonAssonHitman Anders and the Meaning of it All

£8.99 / PB B / 21 APril 2016 / 9780008152079 / Fourth EstAtE

Recently out of prison, Hitman Anders’s life takes an unexpected turn when he meets a female Protestant vicar (who also happens to be an atheist), and a homeless receptionist at a former brothel which is now a 1-star hotel. The three join forces and concoct an unusual business plan based on Anders’s skills and his fearsome reputation.

Fast-paced and sparky, this novel explores the consequences of fanaticism, the sensationalist press, the entrepreneurial spirit

Nobel Prize–winning economist Alvin Roth uncovers the global rules of how markets allocate, how matchmaking shapes lives, where markets exist that we may not even realise, and how everything about our biggest experiences – like getting accepted at university or living where we want – can be better understood and negotiated when one understands the design of those matching markets.

This ground-breaking book sheds new light on the politics of free markets and how many things that we choose in life also must choose us.

• Roth was awarded a Nobel Prize for Economics for his work on how markets allocate, or fail to allocate, scarce resources.

• Uses anecdotal examples from every-day life to illuminate wider points.

We are taught that the world is a top-down place but acclaimed author, Matt Ridley, shows just how wrong this is in his compelling new book.

‘Top-downery’ is the source of most of our worst problems in the past (why Africa lingered in poverty when Asia did not and why the euro is a disaster) whereas bottom-up trends shape the world. The growth of technology, the sanitation-driven health revolution, the internet and the rise of Asia were all largely emergent phenomena.

Ridley draws on anecdotes from science, economics, history, politics and philosophy with examples drawn from the scientific literature, from historical narratives and from personal anecdotes in this wide-ranging, highly opinionated non-fiction narrative.
