Free-market economists often have noted that there are winners and losers in a competitive capitalist world.

Populist politicians have tried repeatedly to address the issue by creating walls - of both the physical and economic kinds - to insulate communities and keep competition at bay.

Drawing from the nascent field of biophysical economics, Anthill Economics puts forth a radical new way of thinking: as 21st-century citizens, the global economy truly is our human ecosystem. It is where raw materials are sourced, goods are supplied, energy is converted, and capital is exchanged. Shouldn't it stand to reason that the same principles that affect animal ecosystems similarly apply to our - albeit more complex - human ecosystem, too? This book provides a more complete understanding of human commerce shaped by the rules of nature and laws of physics.
