The paired TED talk

GDP measures the wrong things. Here's something better. (2020), the TED talk by Marilyn Waring.

From the publisher

In the years since leaving Parliament in 1984, Marilyn Waring has continued to write. The best from her popular Listener columns (1984-1998) appear here, along with much new writing. Introductions provide a contemporary framework for the central themes - international questions, New Zealand politics, feminist issues, women of influence, and (by no means least) life on the farm.
