The Wealth of Humanity

Hello, and welcome to The Wealth of Humanity. I'm Mark Steven Hewitt.
Long before money, the people who lived along the Indus survived the ice ages with stone, fire, knowledge, and each other. Their wealth was what they knew and what they shared, and they handed it down, from one generation to the next.
My book, The Wealth of Humanity: Together We Prosper, follows that inheritance. It begins with the first villages at Mehrgarh and the cities of the Indus, moves through Adam Smith and the five kinds of wealth that money alone cannot measure, and arrives at a country taking stock of what it has, and at how the people of a place might plan, build, and keep what they build.
What you are about to hear is a discussion and summary of the book. The two hosts are AI voices, generated from the manuscript, and this introduction uses an AI clone of my own voice. As you listen, remember that the micro-city and the reserve for future generations are proposals the book sets out, not programs already running.
Thank you for listening to The Wealth of Humanity.
You can read the book free at nationsoflight.com, where you'll also find my other books. Follow the podcast wherever you listen, so you'll hear each new discussion as it's released. Episodes, notes and transcripts are at podcasts.nationsoflight.com.
And if something here gave you a reason to think, pass it on to someone who would want to hear it.
Together we prosper; apart we fail.
