The essays collected in this volume all deal one way or another with four intertwining themes: (1) new technology and economizing induce vast changes in productivity, resource allocation, and labor utilization; (ii) these changes underlie the global explosion of human numbers, resource utilization, and environmental transformation; (iii) they cause drastic reallocations of people among industries, rural areas, and cities; (iv) to understand all this, scientific economic theory must be based on principles of economic behavior out-of-equilibrium, especially on concepts of adaptation and evolution.Day, Richard H. is the author of 'Divergent Dynamics of Economic Growth Studies in Adaptive Economizing, Technological Change, and Economic Development', published 2007 under ISBN 9780521681056 and ISBN 0521681057.
