Join Pathways to Progress’s Book Discussion in October

We are excited to announce our October book discussion featuring J. Storrs Hall’s Where’s My Flying Car? as part of our ongoing book series dedicated to exploring the ideas of Progress Studies.

Pathways to Progress aims to create a community of individuals committed to understanding and contributing to human prosperity. Through our discussions, we delve into technological and scientific innovation, historical examples of progress, the implications of economic growth on moral progress, and the relationship between technological advancement and societal change.

Each month, we read selected book(s), followed by a Q&A event with the author. In August, we discussed Tyler Cowen’s Stubborn Attachments and In Praise of Commercial Culture; in September, we discussed Ed Glaeser’s Triumph of the City. We also host speaker events with guests such as Jason Crawford, Caleb Watney, and Heidi Williams. Recordings of our speaker events are available on our YouTube channel.
