This month we are reviewing the book How Innovation Works: And Why It Flourishes in Freedom by Matt Ridley. I’ve had this book on my shelf literally for almost 2 years now. I purchased it at the beginning of the pandemic and have been meaning to get to it for a while. And I’m glad I finally did. It has so many elements that I love—a host of stories of innovation from numerous industries, advice for better innovation, and cautionary tales of what can go wrong.
