Our world is mired in a myriad of challenges, from climate change and inequality to hunger and a global pandemic, making our way of life seem more precarious and society more divided than ever before. However, economics holds the key to unlocking solutions that can make the world a better, happier, and safer place. From parenting to organ donation, housing to anti-social behaviour, economics provides us with the tools we need to tackle the biggest issues of our time.

Far from being merely a means to predict the stock market or enrich the elite, economics offers a lens through which we can better understand how things work, design clever solutions, and create the conditions in which we can all flourish. With a healthy dose of optimism and a wealth of stories illustrating the applications of economics in everyday situations, Erik Angner demonstrates the methods he and his fellow economists employ to help improve our lives and the society in which we live.

Angner's book, "How Economics Can Save the World: Simple Ideas to Solve Our Biggest Problems," awakens the possibility of a happier, more just, and more sustainable world by showcasing how economics can be a powerful force for good. Through its pages, we are invited to embrace the potential of economics to address the most pressing challenges of our time and pave the way for a brighter 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.’
