Borrow Debunking Economics II for free on Amazon

By | |

Flattr this!

I’ve just enrolled the Kin­dle edi­tion of Debunk­ing Eco­nom­ics: the naked emper­or dethroned? in Ama­zon’s KDPS­e­lect pro­gram. This makes it avail­able for free bor­row­ing by Ama­zon Prime mem­bers for one month from the Kin­dle Own­ers Lend­ing Library.

Mem­ber­ship of Kin­dle Prime isn’t free–the cost is $79 a year. This fea­ture is obvi­ous­ly an attempt to expand that scheme, which also offers free two-day ship­ping and instant access to stream­ing of movies (out of a library of about 2500 titles right now). The encour­age­ment to authors like myself is a roy­al­ties pool of $500K per month, where each author’s share depends on how many times your books are bor­rowed out of the total pool of eli­gi­ble books.

It’s an inter­est­ing idea, so I’m will­ing to give it a try. It’s not a “free” way to read Debunk­ing though, since you need to enrol in an $79 a year program–more than 3 times the price of the Kin­dle edi­tion (though there is a free one month tri­al of the pro­gram).

About Steve Keen

I am Professor of Economics and Head of Economics, History and Politics at Kingston University London, and a long time critic of conventional economic thought. As well as attacking mainstream thought in Debunking Economics, I am also developing an alternative dynamic approach to economic modelling. The key issue I am tackling here is the prospect for a debt-deflation on the back of the enormous private debts accumulated globally, and our very low rate of inflation.
