I listened to this while preparing an abundance of apples for freezing and pies, gifted to me by a neighbour who has more fruit than she knows what to do with at this time of year.

Why is that relevant? This book is all about reciprocity and the gift economy – in nature and in human society, as an act of resistance against our current, extractive economic system.

Narrated by the author, it explores economics from a biologist’s perspective, arriving at interesting and hopeful conclusions. 😍
