Title: Market economics caused an immense disaster.
Product review: Darwinian science declared that cod - for centuries a basic global food source - could never become extinct. But predictable and preventable market response made rather quick work of a once indispensable species. Kurlansky's scrupulous and almost impassioned explanation should be obligatory reading for citizens young and old, and certainly for teachers and people aspiring to public office. Almost incidentally he rewrites the history of the American revolution. I have to admit, though, that parts of the account decreased my appetite for codfish cakes.
