A worthwhile and well crafted mix of philosophy and mythology. I look forward to listening to it again.

Signals is the story of the world economy, told in the language of everyday objects, places and events - from magazine covers and supermarkets to public protests. Pippa Malmgren argues that by being alert to the many signals around us, we can be empowered to deal with the varied troubles and treasures the world economy inevitably brings. Economics is not just maths and data. Perfume and makeup are part of the world economy, too.

An Annoying Must Read
Revisado: 01-10-18
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
A very important insight is padded with superfluous libertarian ideology meaning the reader has to work to get the benefit of Malmgren's discovery.
Would you recommend Signals to your friends? Why or why not?
Yes. The ideas contained are valuable for successful forcasting
Did Signals inspire you to do anything?
Take an interest in the seemingly small things that, while outwardly insignificant, combine to make life more interesting.

Jimena Canales introduces listeners to the revolutionary ideas of Einstein and Bergson, describes how they dramatically collided in Paris, and traces how this clash of worldviews reverberated across the twentieth century. She shows how it provoked responses from figures such as Bertrand Russell and Martin Heidegger and carried repercussions for American pragmatism, logical positivism, phenomenology, and quantum mechanics.

An OMG Experience
Revisado: 01-07-18
This has changed the way I see the way modern history works. That a hugely respected and influential thinker like Bergson should just disappear from public consciousness in less than a lifetime is astonishing.
This is a must-read.
