Discover Doughnut Economics: Seven Ways to Think Like a 21st-Century Economist by Kate Raworth, a groundbreaking bestseller that transforms our understanding of modern economics. Acclaimed by notable publications such as The Sunday Times, Financial Times, and Forbes, this provocative work has earned a spot on the longlist for the prestigious FT/McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award.
In an era marked by financial instability, soaring wealth inequality, and pressing environmental challenges, Raworth expertly critiques the shortcomings of traditional economic models. By highlighting:
Raworth offers a fresh perspective that introduces seven transformative ideas aimed at creating a sustainable economic framework. Her vision seeks to balance human needs within the planet's ecological limits, guiding us towards a much-needed economic equilibrium.
This isn't just theory; it serves as a clarion call for rethinking our economic practices. Renowned thought leaders have hailed this work as essential for global economic discourse. Forbes labels it Raworth's “magnum opus,” while The Guardian dubs her the “John Maynard Keynes of the 21st century.”
As you explore Doughnut Economics, brace yourself to challenge conventional notions of growth, sustainability, and equity. This compelling read not only reshapes your economic worldview but also illuminates innovative solutions for a brighter, more equitable future.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.
This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.
We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.
Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
