The Sheffield culture guide written by in-the-know locals

Imagine a world with no banks. No stock market. No tech giants. No billionaires. Imagine if Occupy and Extinction Rebellion actually won.

In Another Now, world-famous economist Yanis Varoufakis shows us what such a world would look like. Far from being a fantasy, he describes how it could have come about – and might yet. But would we really want it? Varoufakis's boundary-breaking book confounds expectations of what the good society would look like and reveals the uncomfortable truth about our desire for a better world.
