Description
The Invention of Infinite Growth by Christopher F. Jones is a timely nonfiction book about economics, environmental limits, and the dangerous belief that growth can continue without consequence. Jones examines how mainstream economic thinking came to treat growth as the central measure of progress.
The book traces the history of growth-focused economics and shows how policy, business, and public debate have often separated economic expansion from the natural systems that make human life possible. It connects this thinking to climate change, biodiversity loss, inequality, and the pressure placed on workers and communities.
Written for readers interested in economics, sustainability, climate politics, public policy, and modern history, this paperback challenges a major assumption behind contemporary development: that more growth automatically means better lives.
