Whether it is micro-blogging on Twitter or buying single songs at iTunes, we can customise our lives to shape our own specific needs. In other words, we can create our own economy - and live smarter and happier lives. This title shows that our supernetworked world is changing the way we think - and empowering us to thrive in any economic climate.

Renowned behavioural economist and commentator Tyler Cowen shows that our supernetworked world is changing the way we think - and empowering us to thrive in any economic climate. Whether it is micro-blogging on Twitter or buying single songs at iTunes, we can now customise our lives to shape our own specific needs. In other words, we can create our own economy - and live smarter, happier, fuller lives. At a time when apocalyptic thinking has become all too common, Cowen offers a much needed information age manifesto that will resonate with readers of Dan Ariely's "Predictably Irrational", Steven Johnson's "Everything Bad is Good for You", and everyone hungry to understand our potential to withstand, and even thrive, in any economic climate.

Tyler Cowen is a professor of economics at George Mason University. He is a prominent blogger at marginalrevolution.com, the world's leading economics blog. He also writes regularly for The New York Times, and has written for Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, Newsweek, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, and The Wilson Quarterly.
