Join Pathways to Progress's Book Discussion on Joel Mokyr's A Culture of Growth: The Origins of the Modern Economy

We’re excited to announce our February book discussion featuring Joel Mokyr’s A Culture of Growth: The Origins of the Modern Economy.

Pathways to Progress is a community of individuals committed to understanding and contributing to human prosperity. Through our discussions, we examine technological and scientific innovation, economic development, and their role in advancing human prosperity. Each month, we read selected book(s), followed by a Q&A event with the author. Previous books include Starved for Science by Robert Paarlberg, Where’s My Flying Car? by J. Storrs Hall, and Stubborn Attachments by Tyler Cowen. We also host speaker events with guests such as Jason Crawford, Matt Clancy, and Casey Handmer. Most speaker events are recorded and available on our YouTube channel.
