Agenda for a New Economy

I agree with much of what David Korten has to say in his new book, Agenda for a New Economy. It's hard not to. It's a virtuous book, virtuous because it's right about so many things. As far it goes. ??Unfortunately, like many virtuous books it shares the defect of being long on describing what is and what should be but is critically short on how and why its prognoses and prescriptions are logically plausible, hence possible. In other words, it is largely a book of description and assertion without a rigorous polemic that grounds either in a compelling chain of reasoning.??This is not so much of a problem when Korten is describing what ails us- what he calls Wall Street's phantom wealth economy.
